The Antichrist is all the rage nowadays. In this video, author and host Patrick Coffin breaks down the biblical and traditional portraits of the Antichrist, and separates fact from fiction.
Since the 1970s in movies like “The Omen,” Hollywood has tried to artistically portray the Antichrist but almost always gets it wrong while over-dramatizing, yet paradoxically underestimating the evil involved.
Topics covered in this episode:
- The recent historical context for interest in the Antichrist - The four places in the Bible where he is explicitly mentioned: 1 John 2:11; John 2:22, 1 John 4:3; 2 John 1:7. - Examples of cultural and societal disruption and increased sense of evil and danger - How the Conclave that resulted in the appearance of Jorge Mario Bergoglio is part of that disruption - The three modes of antichrist: any spirit that denies the Incarnation; prototypes in history of the Antichrist; and the appearance of the real thing just before Christ returns. - The qualities of the Antichrist in Scripture compared to the background and the behavior and aims of Elon Musk

Host Patrick Coffin sits down with Professor Eric Kaufmann, a leading expert on demographics and politics, to explore the sometimes sudden shifts in global population trends and their implications for religion, culture, and society. The conversation delves into the role of religion in shaping demographics, examining how fertility rates and religious adherence intersect and cause each other. They also discuss the influence of contraception on population growth and societal values.
A key focus of the conversation is the origins and meaning of "woke" ideology. Professor Kaufmann traces its roots to postmodern thought and explains how it became a dominant cultural force in the West, and how it has been weakened by real life. Together, these Canadian born ex-pats analyze the impact of this ideology on identity politics and public discourse, raising critical questions about the future of free speech in academic settings. This thought-provoking conversation provides listeners with a deep understanding of today's most pressing social and political issues.

In a powerful simulcast between author and Salcedo Storm radio host Chris Salcedo, “America's Liberty Loving Latino” and Patrick Coffin, the two hosts exchanged ideas, principles, and media experiences on communicating the vital role of Christianity in shaping America's future.
Both Mr. Salcedo and I—meeting for the first time in this mutual interview—stressed that faith is not just a personal belief but a cornerstone for maintaining freedom, justice, and a sense of community in an increasingly secular world.
Throughout the discussion, we argued that the erosion of Christian principles has contributed to most if not all of the social and political challenges facing the country today. They called for a revival of religious values, urging Christians to become more vocal in the public sphere and to stand firm in defending their faith. Chris, author of the novel Liberty Rises, agrees strongly that reclaiming the original idea for America must involve a recovery of her religious and moral fervor.
Topics covered in this episode:
- The evangelical call of Christian media professionals
- The role of intentional discipleship
- How the Democrat media machine stereotypes Latinos as leftists
- Our Lady of Fatima’s message for the world
- Why Christians must lock arms with people of other faiths

In this personal edition of the podcast I give a detailed account of why I dumped alcohol on November 4th 2019. It wasn't because I think alcohol is wrong or evil in itself. As a Catholic, I don't believe that. The wedding miracle at Cana happened when Jesus changed six jars of water into wine, not grape juice (John 2.) But for me it was the right decision. I didn't like how alcohol reacted to my body and vice versa. What delayed my quitting for a couple of years was my quiet anxiety that I would crave it if I quit it. The thought that I was an alcoholic was disturbing enough. The whole idea of no longer drinking made me nervous because I didn't know what my reaction would be. My dad (Jack, RIP +2018) was an alcoholic who found sobriety through AA; his father died from acute alcoholism. I hope and pray this episode inspires you to give serious thought to dumping alcohol. I have never looked back, and actually rarely think of it. Backstory to the reasons why I quit: * Anecdotes about my father’s (and his father’s) alcoholism * In what sense I buy the disease model of alcoholism * I loved the natural high feeling when I did the Whole 30 Diet, and dropped 20 pounds without trying * I met a Chaldean Christian at a party who told me he quit drinking as a spiritual sacrifice—a kind of fast—on behalf of souls who are away from Christ, and why it moved me * I peed the bed through the night after drinking too much over not enough hours * I had my first and only blackout during a backyard party that involved too many tequila shots * My habit of weeping while watching romantic comedies bothered and embarrassed me * My decision to change my mindset from “giving up” drinking to “getting rid” of drinking * I fell in love with San Pellegrino sparkling water, crushed ice, and lemon slices

In this commentary episode of the Patrick coffin show, Patrick does a review of the players and principles surrounding the bull’s eye of the target known as Sean “Diddy” Combs, arrested last month by Damian Williams, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, and William S. Walker, the Acting Special Agent in Charge of the New York Field Office of Homeland Security Investigations. Diddy was charged with a three-count indictment for racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. But this case is not about celebrity gossip or the downfall of one or two bad apples. It is a revelation of the depth of depravity and denial that has always characterized the entertainment industry. The Diddy indictment alleges that between 2008 and 2024, he abused, threatened, and coerced women and others, and led a racketeering conspiracy that engaged in sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice, among other crimes. In the Hollyweird orbit of Epsteins and Weinsteins, why would a Combs indictment for similar behavior shock us? There are more questions to be asked. Topics covered in this episode: Why is no one talking about the “family tree” of mentorship and manipulation by the man who discovered Diddy, R&B producer Andre Harrell, and the man who discover Harrell—the creepy self-described bisexual Clive Davis, founder of Arista Records. How did Diddy’s career really start? The litany of people connected to Diddy who showed up dead or seriously ill, like ex-girlfriend Kim Porter, JayZ’s pregnant mistress Cathy White, singer Aaliyah, and radio host Wendy Williams. Former insiders to follow: R&B singer Jaguar Wright, comedian Katt Williams, and former Diddy bodyguard Gene Deal. Troubled rappers connected to Diddy: JayZ, Drake, Usher, 50 cent, Tupac Shakur, Biggie Smalls (aka the Notorious BIG), R. Kelly Rappers are black proxies for largely non-black owners, who seem always to escape justice Puff Combs’ Bay Boy Records (owned by BMG, sold to Sony in 2008, CEO Rob Stringer; Travis Scott’s Cactus Jack Records, distributed by Epic Records, owned by Sony Music Entertainment, CEO Rob Stringer; Drake’s OVO Sound, an imprint of Warner Records from its formation until 2022, CEO Aaron Bay-Schuck; Tyler, The Creator, Odd Future Records, parent company, Sony Music Entertainmen, CEO Rob Stringer; Legendary DEF JAM records, parent company Universal Music Group, CEO Sir Lucian Grainge; Jay Z’s Rock a Fella Records, owned by Universal Music Group, CEO is Sir Lucian Grainge; 50 Cent’s G-Unit Records, owned by Universal Music Group, CEO Sir Lucian Grainge; Usher and Justin Bieber’s RBMG Island Def Jam Music Group, run by Tunji Balogun, but the parent company is Universal Music Group, CEO Sir Lucian Grainge; Yo Gotti’s Collective Music Group CMG, owned by parent company, Universal Music Group, CEO Lucian Grainge; Dr. Dre’s Aftermath Records, a subsidiary of Universal Music Group, and distributed through Interscope Records, CEO Sir Sir Lucian Grainge (Dickon Stainer in the UK) The grandaddy of all the non black music executives is Clive Davis, the main puppet master of Diddy, and the man who launched careers dating back to the 60s, from Tony Orlando, the Bay City Rollers, Aretyha Franklin, Whitney Houston and many others up to: Justin Bieber, perhaps the highest profile troubled artist in this toxic space.
In this episode of The Patrick Coffin Show, host Patrick sits down with the amazing Kamala Harris impersonator Ester Paltilova (Estee Palti) in a free-wheeling improvised exchange. As political polarization intensifies, humor often becomes both a unifying force and effective coping tool. Estee (a wife and mom of young kids, and a professional nurse) drops truth bombs about the high wire walked by comedians in an era where people are quick to take offense.
Estee and Patrick dive into how satire and humor can open up difficult conversations and discuss the absurdities of modern life with family and friends. Estee explains how comedians today have a responsibility to both entertain and provoke thought, while also navigating the ever-evolving boundaries of what’s considered "acceptable" in comedy.
The conversation also touches on the growing trend of cancel culture and the impact it has on artistic expression, despite pressures to conform. Ultimately, the episode underscores how laughter can be a powerful antidote to division, helping us connect and—maybe—transcend differences.
Topics covered in this episode:
- Improv session complete with word association game with Vice President Kamala Harris!
- When Estee discovered her gift of unbelievable imitation of Kamala and her infamous cackle
- Why censorship of comedy is dangerous
- How comedy and wit can break media spells and hello people use their brains
- The media’s love affair with, and advocacy for, the Harris/Walz ticket
- The importance of humor in winning hearts and minds to clear thinking and creating teachable moments for the audience

In this episode of The Patrick Coffin Show, host Coffin critiques a recent interview between Jordan Peterson and Zeena Schreck, daughter of Anton Szandor LeVay (born Levey, 1930-1997). With direct quotes, Coffin expresses concern over the normalization of occult and satanic figures in mainstream discussions, arguing that Peterson's platforming of Schreck inadvertently lends credibility to her controversial past as a high priestess in the church of satan.
Coffin dissects the conversation, highlighting what appears to be Peterson's failure to critically engage with the spiritual dangers associated with the new tantric Buddhism, which replaced her Satanism after a leadership stint in the Sethian Liberation Movement (SLM), another occultic sect.
She has distanced herself from her previous satanic beliefs, but the Peterson interview fails to provide cautionary context regarding the influences of diabolical ideologies. Confused and suffering people like Zeena Schreck deserve the clarity of the fullness of truth and healing found uniquely in Christ. Peterson’s gnostic-Jungian biases, however, seem to prevent him from bringing an objective, biblical critique to the self-rationalizing narrative laid down by his guest.
The episode encourages listeners to approach crucial interviews like this with discernment, especially when discussing spirituality and metaphysical basics like good and evil— matters that not only impact personal perceptions of morality and faith, but of reality itself.
Covered in this episode:
- The dangers of reducing a satanist monster like Anton LeVay into a mere “carnival barker” or “showman”
- Evidence that his daughter Zeena Schreck is still bound in some way by evil spirits
- Why Jesus Christ is the only answer to the reality of satanic influence and infiltration
- What happens when true evil is banalized as a mere human construct
- The effects of profound satanic initiation and neglect
- Why “tantric Buddhism” is just a more benign form of satan worship
- Thoughts on the dangers of the writings of Carl Gustav Jung

In this thought-provoking episode of The Patrick Coffin Show, Patrick engages in a rather detailed, and somewhat technical, conversation with canon lawyer Marc Balestrieri to address two hot-button topics within the Catholic Church: the schismatic claims surrounding Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò and the mounting evidence that Pope Francis (Jorge Bergoglio) could be considered an antipope. Guest Marc Balestrieri is founder and president of Canonical Aid, an international canon law service helping lay and clergy with canonical issues. He is licensed to practice before any ecclesiastical court in the world, except the tribunals of the Holy See, and specializes in the nullity of Marriage, penal canon law, rotal Jurisprudence and praxis, and the rights of clerics and the faithful. He was recruited to serve as a staff canonist for the Sacred Roman Rota in the Vatican for the Holy See, and his record includes service in the United States for the Archdioceses of Saint Paul & Minneapolis, Saint Louis, and Los Angeles; England for the Archdiocese of Westminster; and France for the Archdiocese of Strasbourg. In this interview, Balestrieri offers a detailed analysis of the canonical definitions of schism and whether Viganò’s outspoken critiques of Francis, in light of the July 2024 Vatican announcement of Viganò’s excommunication for schism. They explore Viganò’s controversial stance on issues like the Second Vatican Council and his sharp critiques of the Vatican’s leadership. The conversation then pivots to the question of Bergoglio’s legitimacy as pope. Balestrieri shares insights into historical and canonical precedents that fuel arguments for and against the idea that Francis may not be the true successor of St. Peter. Patrick and Marc discuss the impact these debates have on the faithful and the Church’s unity, encouraging listeners to think critically about the current papal crisis. Tune in for a fascinating exploration of modern ecclesial controversies, and what it all means for Catholics worldwide. Topics covered in this episode: * The proper definition of schism * The differences between the 1917 Pio-Benedictine Code of Canon Law * The dilemma of being on trial for excommunication and schism when you don’t recognize the validity of the antagonist-judges * The relevant canons for papal resignation and the distinction between munus (office or gift) and ministerium (external functions) * Principles for maintaining hope in an upside down Church under Bergoglio * The controversies surrounding the St. Gallen Mafia’s misadventures in the lead up and voting pattern in the March 2013 Conclave

In this episode, we sit down with Timothy and Stephanie Gordon to discuss their compelling new book, “Leave and Cleave: Nine Marriage-Prep Secrets, Once Taught, Now Censored.” We all see the havoc wreaked by divorce. The victims lie strewn everywhere. Why not nip the problem in the bud and start at the beginning—and the head of the marriage river, which is how marriage preparation is done? Tim and Stephanie Gordon, parents of seven, podcast hosts and authors, tackle the essential principles of preparing for a lifelong commitment within the framework of Catholic teaching, including (especially?) the challenging bits. Here they share their motivation behind writing the book, drawing from their personal experiences and the urgent need they see for revitalizing traditional marriage preparation in the Church. We explore key themes from the book, such as the importance of understanding the sacramental nature of marriage, the biblical roles of husband and wife, and the significance of leaving behind past attachments to fully cleave to one’s spouse. Timothy and Stephanie offer practical advice for couples, blending theological insights with real-world applications. Whether you're engaged, married, or simply interested in Catholic views on marriage, this episode provides valuable guidance and inspiration. Tune in for an enriching conversation that promises to strengthen your understanding and approach to Catholic marriage. In this interview, we cover: * How marriage prep began to weaken after Vatican II * Why confusion about the very definition of marriage leads to bad outcomes * The Gordon’s own journey toward Catholic orthodoxy * How the extended adolescence of our culture has cause massive disruptions to the very idea of marriage as a lifelong commitment * Why Humanae Vitae didn’t quote persuade skeptics of Catholic teaching on contraception * Why the traditional view of the roles of husband and wives is enjoying a resurgence among young Catholics

She has received seven Emmy Award nominations and six Writers Guild of America award nominations. Chances are excellent you’ve loved watched shows she has written. (Start the list with Hill Street Blues, M.A.S.H., Moonlighting, Northern Exposure, I'll Fly Away, Judging Amy and The Good Wife). Her new book, her first non-fiction work, tackles the silencing of Father Paul Mankowski, SJ by the Jesuit superiors who could not abide a practicing Catholic in their midst. Mankowski, who died suddenly of an aneurysm on September 3, 2020, was a scholar, philologist, confessor, and professor of Scripture. He was also a writer of immense talent: charm, force, and wit. He was modern in the sense of addressing contemporary crises with Catholic truth, but also a true son of the Company of Jesus more in the mold of its founder, St. Ignatius of Loyola than the typical lavender-liberal Jesuits that dominate the landscape today. He was also silenced and sidelined by his superiors for Wrong Think. And yet, he obeyed and persevered to a degree that must be called heroic. Hall’s very enjoyable book is not just a spiritual biography, but a window onto the chain-of-command dynamics of the post Vatican II Catholic Church, which have become even more severe under the current Argentine regime in Rome. In this episode, you will learn: How Hall applied top-flight storytelling skills to tell the tale, with admirable detail, of an unheralded hero in the Church. The reasons why Mankowski stayed and fought in his own way against Church corruption by remaining faithful to his vow of obedience come what may How the faithful Jesuit’s witness led to an upgraded edition of her novel Dark Debts The inciting incident—criticizing pro-abortion Jesuit Congressman Robert Drinan, SJ— that began his targeting by corrupt homosexuality superiors Mankowski’s fervent, often humorous critique of the sacred cows of the Catholic left: feminism, liturgical innovation, and “social justicism” Why we need more witnesses to the gospel without compromise Resources mentioned in this episode: The Sound of Silence: The Life and Cancelling of a Heroic Jesuit Priest by Karen Hall

Justin reached out to O'Keefe, and received training in undercover operations, and successfully captured all kinds of incriminating information from Pfizer. Fast forward to the sting operation in which Dr. Jordon Trishton Walker, a director of research and development for the Pfizer Corporation, was caught on video going on and on about outlining how the company could mutate viruses in a lab to create new vaccines, and suggesting that this idea could be a “cash cow” for Pfizer and other pharma giants. Justin Leslie was the guy sitting across the table from Walker, off camera, in a video that went viral with over 50,000,000 views on Twitter alone. But in a plot twist no one saw coming, Justin found a pattern of deception so obvious and onerous in the behavior of the founder of PV, James O’Keefe, that he turned the undercover tables on his boss, Project Veritas-style.

This fresh guest episode shares the same title as its guest’s newest book. Most people have no idea about the satanic roots of the Communist ideology, which is no more powerful than it is today in the Communist Chinese system. Steven Mosher is the president of the Population Research Institute, and an expert in Chinese history and culture and was the first American social scientist allowed into the country back in 1979. He went in as a pro-choice atheist but witnessed the CCP one-child policy firsthand and later became a pro-life Catholic. In many ways, China has become the hub of the wheel of the world's communist ideology with many spokes leading out across the world with the poison of communist ideology and influence. Topics covered in this episode: The roots of communism in the mind of Karl Marx How Communism spread to China and from there to Southeast Asia The rise of Mao Zedong and his dark legacy as one of the most notorious leaders in human history How the current chairman of the Chinese Communist Party, Xi Jinping is the ideological successor to Mao Zedong The meaning of the disastrous agreement between the Vatican under Francis and the CCP, brokered by the highest profile criminal prelate in American history, Ted McCarrick.

Gary Zimak helps people with the most ordinary thing. Or at least apparently ordinary thing: he helps people to not worry. The Catholic speaker has been writing books, doing podcasts, and addressing conferences for over a decade and has it down to an art if not a science.
With the Covid tyranny in the last two and a half years, the effort to not worry has become even more intense and hard to master for many people. Which is why this conversation is so important.
After this interview, you will know:
- How Zimak overcame his own “worry wartism”
- The biblical basis for not worrying
- The difference between mundane worry and serious anxiety
- Tips on worry reduction if not total elimination of worry
- Jesus’ strong opinion on worry and the difference friendship with Him makes
- Why God continually commands us not to worry
- Why prayer is a decision not a feeling
- Strategies for remembering to be grateful

I promise, you will be astounded the sheer breadth and variety—not to mention longevity—of the 97-year-old Mr. Senensky’s career.
A partial list of hit shows he directed would include The Twilight Zone, the original Star Trek, The Courtship of Eddie's Father, Dr. Kildare, Mission Impossible, The Fugitive, The Waltons, FBI, and Mannix.
I thought with the crazy upside down status of the world these days, I would take a break from heavier topics and showcase an insightful and nostalgic visit the golden age of television to the lens of a legendary director whose work is still enjoyed by untold millions of people.
In this Episode You Will Learn * How a young man from Mason City, Iowa, fell into show business and rose to the top of his profession * What it was like to realize he was going to direct the legendary Barbara Stanwyck * A typical day in the life of a busy Hollywood TV director * Stories of conflict with actors and Studio “suits” * How show business has changed with the culture and vice versa * Lessons of perseverance and leading the life you want to live not the one others force on you

FOLLOW ME Telegram: https://t.me/patrickcoffinmedia Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realpatrickcoffin/ X: https://twitter.com/CoffinMedia Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/patrickcoffin.media We normally think of political correctness as a canon of words and attitudes that are arbitrarily forbidden in polite (read Left-liberal) company. It comes in many forms, but in Canada it’s more and more becoming codified in law.
As Dr. Jordan Peterson (and those observing his plight) have learned, the PC Game now has legal teeth and real-world consequences for those who don’t want to play.
Dr. Peterson is a professor of psychology at the University of Toronto and a clinical psychologist. He recently posted a series of lectures on his YouTube channel with titles like “Professor Against Political Correctness,” “Fear and the Law,” and “The University of Toronto Requests My Silence.” These lectures were delivered after the University’s HR department mandated that “trans people” be called by of the newfangled pronouns like zie, hir, ey, em, eir, they, co, xe, to name but a sample of the absurdist verbiage that has been coughed up by activists.
The good professor is not having any of it.
And he’s putting his job on the line—and whatever other punishments that may be in store if he is hauled before the Ontario Human Rights Commission (sounds cuddly, don’t it?). For if Bill C-16 is passed in Canada at the federal level, “gender identity” and “gender expression” join the List of the Prohibited and constitute actionable grounds of discrimination. New York City already has a similar law. Those guilty of “mis-gendering” must pay a $250,000 fine. The Big Apple recognizes 31 gender identities, by the way.
But this isn’t merely about pronouns. What’s at stake is whether the government or any other institution should be allowed to control and proscribe human speech, especially when the phrasing of the controllers are vague and impossible to interpret consistently, let alone police equitably. When Italy’s fascist dictator Benito Mussolini sought a more “virile language” for his machismo vision of the Italian nation, he required the comradely voi (the plural “y’all”) for Lei, the feminine form. Under his rule, voi was obligatory in schools, public offices, movie subtitles, radio shows, and public ceremonies. Not surprisingly, Italians dropped the fear-based nonsense and reverted to the traditional Lei when the hated dictator fell from power.

The evidence that the true Pontiff of the Catholic Church is His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI is clear and straightforward according to Matthew Hanley. The award-winning Catholic ethicist joins me this week to talk about how he came to discover the evidence that Jorge Mario Bergoglio is our latest anti-pope (after several centuries), and why this conclusion can no longer be called fringe or rad trad in nature.
After this interview, you will know: * The step-by-step journey taken by Hanley toward the full clarity of the evidence * The difference between the canonical crimes of the St. Gallen Mafia in the March 2013 Conclave and the Declaratio read by His Holiness on February 11, 2013 * The difference between munus and ministerium and why it matters * Which key word is missing from Benedict’s “abdication” * Why the evidence and its conclusion have nothing to do with sedevacantism * The real meaning of antipope * Clues that the Pope knows he created an Impeded See and is therefore the true office holder of the papacy * What ordinary Catholics should and can do in light of this evidence

Kyle Kemper is an entrepreneur, husband, and father. His mother Margaret (whose former husband was Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau) is also Justin Trudeau’s mother by her second husband Fred Kemper. This family connection to Justin gives Kyle Kemper a unique personal perspective on the tyrannical way his half-brother is governing Canada with police state tactics. The cryptocurrency guru (he founded and runs Swiss Key) has choice words for what has happened to his native land during the (planned, fake, oligarchic) Covid “crisis,” thanks in large part to Justin’s role as a sock puppet to powerful international interests.
POINTS COVERED
👉When Kemper first had the green light/red pill experience regarding the Covid lie 👉How the media and law enforcement agencies collude with the Canadian government to persecute and deceive is own citizens 👉Why vax passports are about mining your data and invading your privacy more than “health” 👉Kemper’s reply to the rumor that Fidel Castro is Justin’s biological father 👉How the Canadian government is using the recent massive gun theft as a false flag to justify militarized action against the truckers in Ottawa and elsewhere 👉How Justin Trudeau is a compliant servant of the New World Order 👉The organizations at the “top:” WEF, WHO, the Bilderberg Group, Freemasonry, the Illuminati, Bohemian Grove, the Council on Foreign Relations, and yes, the Vatican

For the past fifty years he has been communicating to his audience his profound love of the traditional and authentic Mystical and Biblical Theology that has inspired all his writings on prayer.
During his twelve year s as Director of a London Retreat and Conference Centre , followed by his tenure as the Dean of Studies at the Nation al Catholic Radio and Television Centre in London , he gained direct experience of the decline in the moral and spiritual life of the Church.
After lecturing on Mystical theology at the invitation of the Angelicum, the Dominican University in Rome , he has spent the rest of his life trying to inspire Catholics with the truth. That is to return without delay to the profound contemplative spirituality bequeathed to the early Church by Jesus Christ himself and its development from St Paul , to St Teresa of Avila and St John of the Cross.
He has written ten books on prayer and the spiritual life, some of which have been translated into thirteen languages.

Most books by Christians about the atheism v theism debate start with the reasonableness of faith. Popular radio host and author Eric Metaxas starts with the reasonableness of science as filled with evidential power for the existence of God as can be known by faith. His brand new book is titled Is Atheism Dead? And what a stemwinder it is. Truly thought-provoking stuff hiding in plain sight—evidence of intentional and intelligent design.
In this Episode You Will Learn * Why Metaxas decided to take the fight, so to speak, to the scientists * The miraculous properties of water * The staggering unlikelihood that the moon’s (small) size and distance to the sun (huge size) would line up as appearing to be the same dimensions as seen from earth * The conversion to theism (at a bare minimum) of high profile atheists Jean Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, and Antony Flew * Why atheists are often bitterly opposed to even the idea of God * An array of incredibly fascinating facts hidden in nature that point to God as First Cause * The difference between the God of the philosophers and the Father of Jesus Christ * Reasons why faith is reasonable and not contrary to reason

Tucker Carlson is very good at what he does, which is engage guests and topics on his prime time-slotted Fox News show Tucker Carlson Tonight. With aplomb and wit—which is hard when your guest is an angry eedjit,as the Irish say—he gets down to brass tacks on whatever the topic is.
His brand new book is titled Ship of Fools: How a Selfish Ruling Class Is Bringing America to the Brink of Revolution. And he means it. His thesis: you can have egalitarianism AND oligarchy. One of the has got to go. Yet the book, like its creator, is often hilarious in its own way.
In this episode you will learn: * Who the major players are—the “fools” of the title—and why they’re included * Why elites and oligarchs come in all religions, or none, and all skin colors * A brief history of how American culture shifted toward Krazy in the last few years * How the 2016 election of Donald Trump was a sign of electoral unhappiness that got worse over decades * How liberals sell fake science, climate change (denying contrary evidence) and why abortion is the untouchable sacrament of the Left * Some reasons to keep a sense of humor!

Author and nationally syndicated radio host Michael Medved has an extra dollop of gratitude for America. He wears it on his sleeve. It fairly pours out of him when he speaks. It certainly animates his newest book, The American Miracle: Divine Providence In the Rise of the Republic. I’ll get to this fascinating book in a moment.
I won’t hide my admiration for the host of The Michael Medved Show, which is, in the words of its intro, “the number one show in America on politics and pop culture.” Been a listener for over 15 years. I know what gets under his skin, what he finds funny, annoying, and so on. Last year, with grace and resolve, he successfully fought back against what has to be a professional broadcaster’s worse nightmare: a diagnosis of throat cancer.
That fight seems to have intensified his love of God and country – two loves he acquired later in life. At Yale Law School he became friends with a young woman named Hillary Rodham, and his fellow boomer-era travelers seemed collectively destined for a liberal worldview, if not leadership.
But Medved’s moral conversion to an essentially conservative Republican point of view, and his spiritual return to Orthodox Judaism as a baal teshiva (reverts to orthodox Catholicism can relate to the concept) are unlikely twists to an otherwise “pre-set” story. His memoir Right Turns gives a fuller account.
In our conversation, Medved details an unusual sequence of what have been nicknamed God-incidences – winks of Providence – in the rise and flourishing of the United States. This Canadian ex-pat living in Southern California had never heard of most of them. The list of astounding military victories, date parallels, bizarre weather phenomena that helped the ragtag Colonists beat back the fearsome British naval machine point to a Someone behind this exceptional national experiment known as America.
The American Miracle is a good place to discover signs of God’s hand in secular history. It’s also a reminder to stop whining about “how divided we are.” The country has been far more roiled and riven in the past. Ever on the brink of disaster, the American ship keeps righting herself.
Maybe she has some help from a non-political Source…I interview, you decide.

Naomi Wolf is one of the least likely candidates to have arisen as a leader in the fight against the massive deception known as the Covid plandemic. The feminist journalist and Democrat presidential adviser got red pilled virtually from the outset of the lockdown routines in New York under corrupt ex-Governor Cuomo.
The blessing for the rest of us is that she has put out a book that connects countless dots showing where the corruption began, the locations of its axis of evil, and how you can spot the lies. She sat down with me to talk about her newest book, titled The Bodies of Others: The New Authoritarians, COVID-19 and The War Against the Human.
After this interview you will know:
👉Dr. Wolf’s first inkling that the world of free humans was being lied to on a massive scale 👉The CCP/Pfizer/PCR test equipment money trail 👉How the elites took away analog living (hugs, singing together, board games, communal worship, etc.) and imposed digital living (Zoom meetings, everything online, QR codes, masks, “social distancing,” etc.) 👉How fear got harnessed by the cabal to encourage compliance 👉The insightful “bear anecdote” 👉How religion got redefined from human activity to discarnate unreality 👉How Dr. Wolf began to ponder the metaphysical nature of this current evil 👉Critical thinking as key to stop falling for propaganda

The emotional, some say spiritual, effect music has on us is notoriously difficult to put into words. It’s sort of like analyzing why something is funny. The reality ever exceeds our verbal grasp.
Why are minor chords sad and majors happy? Why, when you hear a song from your childhood is there a superglue of emotion attached, bringing you instantly to those moments long ago?
This week’s guest is one of the greats in the choral music world. If you enjoy music with a lush, cinematic sound created for multiple voices on the exquisite side, Morten Lauridsen is your man.
The most frequently performed American composer of choral music, Lauridsen is a National Medal of Arts recipient (2007), he was composer-in-residence of the Los Angeles Master Chorale (1994–2001), and has been a professor of composition at the University of Southern California Thornton School of Music for more than 50 years. His work has been recorded on over 200 CDs including five with Grammy nominations.
We’re talking serious musical gravitas here.
On November 11, 2018, a massive concert for international television is being held at the Brandenburg Gate in Germany to mark the centenary of the end of World War One. In addition to Welsh composer Karl Jenkins’ Mass for Peace, the other piece selected is Lauridsen’s beautiful Lux Aeterna. I predict not a dry eye on that night.
You can imagine my surprise when, during the interview, the great man spontaneously began playing a portion of his classic O Magnum Mysterium to explain why the notes for the word “Virgo” ground the piece in a special way!
In this interview, you will learn: * Why every artist has to risk failure; as not trying guarantees failure * How Lauridsen became a late bloomer as a composer, at age 50, and maybe how you can, too * Why poetry deserves a massive revival * The importance of stillness and quiet for human serenity and creativity * The mysterious way in which music connects us to the divine

Let’s face it. Everyone is addicted to something. Our fallen natures are bent toward false substitutes for God.
Mark McDonald deals in fear addiction as a psychiatrist with a specialization in helping children and he knows the damage wrought by the Covid nonsense plandemic. We have become a nation addicted to fear. His new book, Freedom From Fear: A 12 Step Guide to Personal and National Recovery, is a jolt of fine wine into the pitcher of Krazy Kovid Koolaid. Great read!
After this interview you will know:
- How fear acts as a drug on the mind
- Why the thesis here is inspired by the 12 Steps of AA and the 12 Rules for Life By Jordan Peterson
- Why you need to cut off the dealer of fear known as the legacy media
- How to get out of sheep mode and to despise the toxic opinions of the collective
- The role of narcissism in virtue-signaling through masks and “social distancing”
- The importance of a sense of humor
- Why the best way to grow your courage is to mentor others
- How to overrule your emotions and act in spite of your fears

Lt. Col. Dave Grossman is one of my top 1% favorite guests. His expertise in the psychology of killing, his work as a scholar and US Army professional, and his straightforward communication style make him the ideal guest for the topic: what is the only causal factor in the personal backgrounds of every single school mass murderer?
He is the director of the Warrior Science Group and lectures all over the world.
This interview must be shared widely. “School shootings” and terrorist attacks are going to get much worse and we need to be prepared, without succumbing to the paralysis of fear. God wins, and there are things ordinary people can do to detect, deter, and defeat these killers in our midst.

On Twitter, mathematics Ph.D. (Cornell) Dr. Briggs is @famedcelebrity, and his website subtitle is “Statistician to the Stars”—both digs at our culture’s silly celeb worship. He co-authored an important book about the Covid scam titled The Price of Panic, and has a new one out, that does many things well, including explaining the difference between conservative and based; and scores of examples of fallacies and how to spot them.
A very enjoyable exchange with a natural raconteur, practicing Catholic, and man of hard science and logic.

Christopher Guest (Waiting for Guffman, This is Spinal Tap, Best In Show, A Mighty Wind) said, “When it comes to comedy, Tom Leopold has an extra gene. You may not know it, but he has probably made you laugh.” Harry Shearer (The Simpsons, NPR, This Is Spinal Tap) called him “a semi-precious stone in the crown of comedy,” appellations Leopold treasures.
Indeed, he may well be one of the most prolific and successful comedy writers ever, having written for sitcoms in the US and the UK, material for Bob Hope, Lucille Ball, Jonathan Winters, Michael McKean, Chris Guest, Chevy Chase, et al.
Raised Jewish, the natural raconteur was baptized and received into the Catholic Church at the Easter Vigil in 2011. The conservative-minded comedy writer and one-time actor has some fascinating insights into what we call the culture, especially important for the Covid-19 lockdown.
In this episode you will learn * Whether comedy is a skill you learn or must be born with * How his father’s storytelling tradition shaped young Tom’s imagination * What it’s like to meet, and write jokes for, your heroes * The time Vice President Mike Pence served him a coffee on Air Force Two enroute to Cleveland where Pence was set to give a talk written by Leopold * The meaning of “comedy is tragedy plus time” and “death is easy, comedy is hard” * How Jews and Catholics share a love of story
Resources mentioned in this episode * Episode 5 (wow!) of The Patrick Coffin Show with Tom Leopold about his conversion * Jonathan Winters stand up act “The Talent Show.” * Don Rickles at Ronald Reagan’s 1985 inaugural ball * Eddie Murphy’s first Tonight Show appearance (1982).
If you enjoy this podcast consider being an Ambassador: www.patrickcoffin.media/donate ******* In this episode you will learn: * How reliable Matthew is as an historian * Why describing the Magi a function of myth doesn’t not take away from their historicity * How the colorful additions (Caspar? Melchior? Balthasar? Camels?) to the biblical story arose * The multiple meanings of “the East” for the Jewish people * How the arrival and worship of the Magi set the Incarnation onto an international setting * How to see the accretions of the Magi part of the story with Santa Claus and the original story of St. Nicholas

This episode debuted six years ago, and I could think of no better show to honor my all-time favorite movie, Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life (1947) through the eyes of two women with close ties to its creation.
If Mr. Capra didn’t write it, why do I call it “Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life? It’s because that’s how the movie was marketed, which helps explain why the film got only a so-so reception when it was first released. Most of Mr. Capra’s pre-World War II movies were so sweet-hearted that they later earned the moniker “Capracorn,” not meant as a compliment.
It’s a Wonderful Life is one of the most critically acclaimed films ever made. Nominated for five Academy Awards including Best Picture, recognized by the American Film Institute as one of the 100 best American films ever made, and placed number 11 on its initial 1998 greatest movie list, it also ranked number one on its list of the most inspirational American films of all time.
Think about that. In light of the fact that hundreds of thousands of movies have been made, this is a jaw-dropping achievement.
By the end of the Second World War, though, the mood of the movie-going public had shifted, as I wrote about the making of the movie in National Review a few years ago HERE.
The next day after it was published, an appreciative email from a woman named Mary Owen arrived in my inbox. Turns out, Mary is the daughter of actress Donna Reed, who played Mary Bailey, the wife of James Stewart’s George Bailey.
I thanked her for the lovely email and we had a few back-and-forths. After my podcast was up on two feet and spreading around the world (110 countries and counting), I thought it would be fun to have her on the show to talk about her mother’s role in this now-international favorite Christmas movie and to learn some back story to her mother’s career and her commitment to writing back to the G.I’s who wrote to her from the trenches and the gun turrets of World War II.
The interview segues nicely into the next one, a rich conversation with actress Karolyn Grimes who played Zuzu, one of the four Bailey kids. Remember Zuzu’s petals? This was a real treat for me who loves the movie so well, and I know it will be for you as well.
This week’s guest is a mentor and kind of spiritual mother to Milo Yiannopoulos (whose very candid interview with me was Episode 101) and wrote the bracing Foreword to his latest book (see link below). Dr Rachel Fulton Brown is a tenured professor of history at the University of Chicago, and a renowned medieval scholar with a speciality in the area of devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary.
She is also a fervent convert to the Catholic Faith. In this episode we dive deep into the biblical and historical roots of the role of the Blessed Mother in salvation history, and suggest ways to answer objections to the truth about Mary.
In this episode you will learn: * Why we say Mary is the Mother of God and not just the Mother of Jesus * Why all Marian doctrine is Christological in nature * How the medieval era got things right regarding the role of Mary in the life of the Church * When devotion to Mary went into eclipse and how to revive it * Why Our Lady is a powerful intercessor for all mankind, not just Catholics * The reason why all the titles of Mary in all the litanies can never exhaust her beauty nor the full truth about her person and mission.

Smart phones have given rise to a nation of zombies. You see them everywhere, staring vacantly at their glowing screens in restaurants, amusement park line-ups, in churches, park benches, and family dining room tables.
In his book Glow Kids, Dr. Nicholas Kardaras has laid his finger on a growing problem that few are willing to tackle let alone diagnose and treat. Some people even argue that glowing screens might even be good for kids as a form of interactive educational tool.
This interview will shed light on the causal connection between smart phone use and school shootings, lethargy, and general anger management issues (notice how kids react when their visual drug is taken from them!) Parents, teachers, and pastors, listen up!

David Torkington is a Spiritual Theologian, Author, Lecturer and Broadcaster who specializes in Prayer, Christian Spirituality and Mystical Theology. For the past fifty years he has been communicating to his audience his profound love of the traditional and authentic Mystical and Biblical Theology that has inspired all his writings on prayer.
During his twelve year s as Director of a London Retreat and Conference Centre , followed by his tenure as the Dean of Studies at the Nation al Catholic Radio and Television Centre in London , he gained direct experience of the decline in the moral and spiritual life of the Church.
After lecturing on Mystical theology at the invitation of the Angelicum, the Dominican University in Rome , he has spent the rest of his life trying to inspire Catholics with the truth. That is to return without delay to the profound contemplative spirituality bequeathed to the early Church by Jesus Christ himself and its development from St Paul , to St Teresa of Avila and St John of the Cross.
He has written ten books on prayer and the spiritual life, some of which have been translated into thirteen languages.

Naomi Wolf is one of the least likely candidates to have arisen as a leader in the fight against the massive deception known as the Covid plandemic. The feminist journalist and Democrat presidential adviser got red pilled virtually from the outset of the lockdown routines in New York under corrupt ex-Governor Cuomo.
The blessing for the rest of us is that she has put out a book that connects countless dots showing where the corruption began, the locations of its axis of evil, and how you can spot the lies. She sat down with me to talk about her newest book, titled The Bodies of Others: The New Authoritarians, COVID-19 and The War Against the Human.
After this interview you will know:
👉Dr. Wolf’s first inkling that the world of free humans was being lied to on a massive scale 👉The CCP/Pfizer/PCR test equipment money trail 👉How the elites took away analog living (hugs, singing together, board games, communal worship, etc.) and imposed digital living (Zoom meetings, everything online, QR codes, masks, “social distancing,” etc.) 👉How fear got harnessed by the cabal to encourage compliance 👉The insightful “bear anecdote” 👉How religion got redefined from human activity to discarnate unreality 👉How Dr. Wolf began to ponder the metaphysical nature of this current evil 👉Critical thinking as key to stop falling for propaganda

Tim Gordon and I discovered over time that we are both somewhat afflicted with above-average anxiety. In this frank conversation, we get into some of the fears and anxieties (they are virtual synonyms) that have plagued us and how we got through rough spots.
Catholics, particularly Catholic men, can often have a hard time accepting that they are so afflicted, as though feeling nervous is a moral flaw or sign of weakness. This false belief, of course, becomes the basis for the next round of anxiety. We both think this very personal and transparent interview will be an important episode of The Patrick Coffin Show. Many suffer in silence. No more!
After this interview, you will know: * Why the Australian Dr. Claire Weekes made such a vital contribution to the management of nervous conditions and chronic, even deep seated, anxiety * The four steps of Weekes’ method: face, accept, float through, and let time pass. * How the fear of fear quickly becomes another cause of anxiety * The role of faith and a relationship with Christ can be a huge help in the search for inner peace * Why exercise and plenty of water is so important to recovery from anxious thoughts * Why facing and accepting bodily symptoms of anxiety is not the same thing as enjoying or embracing them * The anxiety of Christ in the garden and how to offer up ours with His

Most Americans (and many Canadians!) tend to view the political climate in Canada as hopeless, being run indirectly by LGBT activists, leftist public officials, neo-Marxist advisors, and most of it aided and abetted by a very liberal media establishment.
Even if this hyperbole were true, there are some people with conservative principles willing to step into the breach and run for office. My guest this week is one of them. Tanya Granic Allen is a wife, mother, professional communicator, parental rights advocate—and a practicing Catholic.
In 2018, despite rising popularity among Ontario voters, she was removed (illegally?) by Premier Doug Ford as a candidate for the Progressive Conservative Party leadership. That’s a longer side-bar story, but in this interview, she talks about “social conservative” values and how they shape voters’ decisions as much as economic or other factors. Her presidency of PAFE (Parents As First Educators) put pro-family, anti-sex education concerns in the public’s mind, which is a rare set of priorities in a Canadian politician. (Even privately pro-life ones are generally chicken to talk about it.)
But this unabashedly pro-life Catholic leader is a sign of great hope for a country under the spell of rabid secularism for too long.
In this episode you will learn * The explicitly Christian roots of Canada, as seen in Coats of Arms, and the founding documents of the country * How Quebec is a sign of what happens when faith is taken for granted, and then widely rejected in favor of worship of the state, er province * Why parents’ rights have now taken a front-and-center place in the public debate over the future * Why the Church calls Catholics to enter public service as elected officers * How you can recognize politics as a dirty game, yet not adopt its corrupt assumptions and traditions * Why Tanya Granic Allen sees signs of great hope for the future of Canada, with Muslims, Christians, and unbelievers holding to the same basic ideals for an open and democratic Canada
Resources mentioned in this episode * “I've been slandered. It's time to set the facts straight” article in The National Post by Tanya Granic Allen * Under Mary's Mantle: Our Lady's Love for Canada by Father Emile-Marie Brière * Sit Down TV debate featuring Tanya Granic Allen (what happened to Doug Ford’s head?) and other Progressive Conservative Party candidates

Kyle Kemper is an entrepreneur, husband, and father. His mother Margaret (whose former husband was Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau) is also Justin Trudeau’s mother by her second husband Fred Kemper. This family connection to Justin gives Kyle Kemper a unique personal perspective on the tyrannical way his half-brother is governing Canada with police state tactics. The cryptocurrency guru (he founded and runs Swiss Key) has choice words for what has happened to his native land during the (planned, fake, oligarchic) Covid “crisis,” thanks in large part to Justin’s role as a sock puppet to powerful international interests.
POINTS COVERED
👉When Kemper first had the green light/red pill experience regarding the Covid lie 👉How the media and law enforcement agencies collude with the Canadian government to persecute and deceive is own citizens 👉Why vax passports are about mining your data and invading your privacy more than “health” 👉Kemper’s reply to the rumor that Fidel Castro is Justin’s biological father 👉How the Canadian government is using the recent massive gun theft as a false flag to justify militarized action against the truckers in Ottawa and elsewhere 👉How Justin Trudeau is a compliant servant of the New World Order 👉The organizations at the “top:” WEF, WHO, the Bilderberg Group, Freemasonry, the Illuminati, Bohemian Grove, the Council on Foreign Relations, and yes, the Vatican

Tucker Carlson is very good at what he does, which is engage guests and topics on his prime time-slotted Fox News show Tucker Carlson Tonight. With aplomb and wit—which is hard when your guest is an angry eedjit,as the Irish say—he gets down to brass tacks on whatever the topic is.
His brand new book is titled Ship of Fools: How a Selfish Ruling Class Is Bringing America to the Brink of Revolution. And he means it. His thesis: you can have egalitarianism AND oligarchy. One of the has got to go. Yet the book, like its creator, is often hilarious in its own way.
In this episode you will learn: * Who the major players are—the “fools” of the title—and why they’re included * Why elites and oligarchs come in all religions, or none, and all skin colors * A brief history of how American culture shifted toward Krazy in the last few years * How the 2016 election of Donald Trump was a sign of electoral unhappiness that got worse over decades * How liberals sell fake science, climate change (denying contrary evidence) and why abortion is the untouchable sacrament of the Left * Some reasons to keep a sense of humor!

Most books by Christians about the atheism v theism debate start with the reasonableness of faith. Popular radio host and author Eric Metaxas starts with the reasonableness of science as filled with evidential power for the existence of God as can be known by faith. His brand new book is titled Is Atheism Dead? And what a stemwinder it is. Truly thought-provoking stuff hiding in plain sight—evidence of intentional and intelligent design.
In this Episode You Will Learn * Why Metaxas decided to take the fight, so to speak, to the scientists * The miraculous properties of water * The staggering unlikelihood that the moon’s (small) size and distance to the sun (huge size) would line up as appearing to be the same dimensions as seen from earth * The conversion to theism (at a bare minimum) of high profile atheists Jean Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, and Antony Flew * Why atheists are often bitterly opposed to even the idea of God * An array of incredibly fascinating facts hidden in nature that point to God as First Cause * The difference between the God of the philosophers and the Father of Jesus Christ * Reasons why faith is reasonable and not contrary to reason

“Have you gotten the vaccine?” My boss says I have to take the vaccine.” “The vaccine is safe, right?” “What if I don’t take it?”
The world is awash with questions about the Covid 19 vaccine. Truthful answers are hard to come by. One reliable source for answers is renowned cardiac physician, scholar, and professor of medicine Dr. Peter McCullough, MD.
He says he can no longer recommend the Covid vaccines in conscience to pregnant women of any age. The evidence of injuries and deaths, he says, is overwhelming, and deliberately understated by the media. He sat down for an uncensored conversation that will be of particular interest to parents.
After this interview, you will know:
- Why this top teaching doctor changed his mind about the Covid-19 vaccines, whether Pfizer, Moderna, J&J, or Astra-Zeneca
- How all roads have always led to the vaccine
- Why the Japanese biodiversity study is a game-changer for vaccine danger awareness
- Why the collective tide is turning against Tony Fauci
- The horrible safety record of the Covid vaccines compared to the 1976 Swine Flu vaccine rollout
- Why now is critical that more and more doctors and attorneys join forces
- How the 2020-2021 response to Covid was fear-based, over-reactive, and tending toward totalitarian

Dr. Ann Gillies, PhD, has been a lone voice for psychological health in a context of aggressive LGBTQ+ propaganda in her native Canada. She has been a close observer of the culture wars in the key battleground of sexuality, gender, and human flourishing. Collating research from the famed Dr. Judith Reisman (RIP) and based on her own clinical experience and training, she has a very important antidote to “the crazy,” titled, Closing the Floodgates: Setting the Record Straight about Gender and Sexuality.
She joined me to talk about the roots of the homosexualist movement, the ravages of porn, scary changes to Canadian law, pedophile grooming, and the way forward for Christians and other social conservatives.

On Twitter, mathematics Ph.D. (Cornell) Dr. Briggs is @famedcelebrity, and his website subtitle is “Statistician to the Stars”—both digs at our culture’s silly celeb worship. He co-authored an important book about the Covid scam titled The Price of Panic, and has a new one out, that does many things well, including explaining the difference between conservative and based; and scores of examples of fallacies and how to spot them.
A very enjoyable exchange with a natural raconteur, practicing Catholic, and man of hard science and logic.
👉Resources mentioned in this episode:
- Everything You Believe Is Wrong by William M. Briggs
- The (entertaining and enlightening) Briggs blog
- The Price of Panic: How the Tyranny of Experts Turned a Pandemic into a Catastrophe, by William Briggs, Douglas Axe, and Jay Richards.
Christopher Guest (Waiting for Guffman, This is Spinal Tap, Best In Show, A Mighty Wind) said, “When it comes to comedy, Tom Leopold has an extra gene. You may not know it, but he has probably made you laugh.” Harry Shearer (The Simpsons, NPR, This Is Spinal Tap) called him “a semi-precious stone in the crown of comedy,” appellations Leopold treasures.
Indeed, he may well be one of the most prolific and successful comedy writers ever, having written for sitcoms in the US and the UK, material for Bob Hope, Lucille Ball, Jonathan Winters, Michael McKean, Chris Guest, Chevy Chase, et al.
Raised Jewish, the natural raconteur was baptized and received into the Catholic Church at the Easter Vigil in 2011. The conservative-minded comedy writer and one-time actor has some fascinating insights into what we call the culture, especially important for the Covid-19 lockdown.
In this episode you will learn * Whether comedy is a skill you learn or must be born with * How his father’s storytelling tradition shaped young Tom’s imagination * What it’s like to meet, and write jokes for, your heroes * The time Vice President Mike Pence served him a coffee on Air Force Two enroute to Cleveland where Pence was set to give a talk written by Leopold * The meaning of “comedy is tragedy plus time” and “death is easy, comedy is hard” * How Jews and Catholics share a love of story
Resources mentioned in this episode * Episode 5 (wow!) of The Patrick Coffin Show with Tom Leopold about his conversion * Jonathan Winters stand up act “The Talent Show.” * Don Rickles at Ronald Reagan’s 1985 inaugural ball * Eddie Murphy’s first Tonight Show appearance (1982).

Tucker Carlson is very good at what he does, which is engage guests and topics on his prime time-slotted Fox News show Tucker Carlson Tonight. With aplomb and wit—which is hard when your guest is an angry eedjit,as the Irish say—he gets down to brass tacks on whatever the topic is.
His brand new book is titled Ship of Fools: How a Selfish Ruling Class Is Bringing America to the Brink of Revolution. And he means it. His thesis: you can have egalitarianism AND oligarchy. One of the has got to go. Yet the book, like its creator, is often hilarious in its own way.
In this episode you will learn: * Who the major players are—the “fools” of the title—and why they’re included * Why elites and oligarchs come in all religions, or none, and all skin colors * A brief history of how American culture shifted toward Krazy in the last few years * How the 2016 election of Donald Trump was a sign of electoral unhappiness that got worse over decades * How liberals sell fake science, climate change (denying contrary evidence) and why abortion is the untouchable sacrament of the Left * Some reasons to keep a sense of humor!

Dr. Judy Mikovits, Ph.D., is one of the most banned, maligned, censored, lied about—and unread—researchers in the world. She was jailed illegally for five days by order of the Fauci Machine, she was a highly regarded cancer researcher until she starting blowing the whistle on the endemic (pandemic?) corruption that taints the biopharmaceutical industry.
Mikovits also has a new book that summarizes the story so far of her fight for truth and against medical tyranny. And the featured expert in the internet phenom documentary Plandemic has a message for the world.

“Have you gotten the vaccine?” My boss says I have to take the vaccine.” “The vaccine is safe, right?” “What if I don’t take it?”
The world is awash with questions about the Covid 19 vaccine. Truthful answers are hard to come by. One reliable source for answers is renowned cardiac physician, scholar, and professor of medicine Dr. Peter McCullough, MD.
He says he can no longer recommend the Covid vaccines in conscience to pregnant women of any age. The evidence of injuries and deaths, he says, is overwhelming, and deliberately understated by the media. He sat down for an uncensored conversation that will be of particular interest to parents.
In This Interview You Will Learn * Why this top teaching doctor changed his mind about the Covid-19 vaccines, whether Pfizer, Moderna, J&J, or Astra-Zeneca * How all roads have always led to the vaccine * Why the Japanese biodiversity study is a game-changer for vaccine danger awareness * Why the collective tide is turning against Tony Fauci * The horrible safety record of the Covid vaccines compared to the 1976 Swine Flu vaccine rollout * Why now is critical that more and more doctors and attorneys join forces * How the 2020-2021 response to Covid was fear-based, over-reactive, and tending toward totalitarian
Resources Mentioned * Chart of Japan biodiversity study results showing the effects of the spike protein on the ovaries. * McCullough’s appearance on Tucker Carlson * Truth Over Fear summit page, featuring Dr. McCullough’s outstanding talk and Q&A session

Peter Breggin is known as “the conscience of psychiatry” for his decades’ worth of patient advocacy, his opposition to psychotropic drugs and lobotomies, and his 100+ expert testimonies at lawsuit trials against Big Pharma. An author or co-author of over 20 books, he has, with his wife Ginger Ross Breggin, released perhaps his most important work, Covid-19 and the Global Predators: We Are the Prey.
It’s not a book about Covid. It’s THE book about Covid.
This is what Dr.Breggin and I discuss in this interview: the meticulously researched account of the origins of SARS-Cov2, the massive deceptions on the part of the Communist Chinese, and the elite billionaires who pull the global financial strings behind the scenes on the whole phenomenon. If you’re brand new to what’s really going on, this is a good place to start.

Tim Gordon and I discovered over time that we are both somewhat afflicted with above-average anxiety. In this frank conversation, we get into some of the fears and anxieties (they are virtual synonyms) that have plagued us and how we got through rough spots.
Catholics, particularly Catholic men, can often have a hard time accepting that they are so afflicted, as though feeling nervous is a moral flaw or sign of weakness. This false belief, of course, becomes the basis for the next round of anxiety. We both think this very personal and transparent interview will be an important episode of The Patrick Coffin Show. Many suffer in silence. No more!
After this interview, you will know: * Why the Australian Dr. Claire Weekes made such a vital contribution to the management of nervous conditions and chronic, even deep seated, anxiety * The four steps of Weekes’ method: face, accept, float through, and let time pass. * How the fear of fear quickly becomes another cause of anxiety * The role of faith and a relationship with Christ can be a huge help in the search for inner peace * Why exercise and plenty of water is so important to recovery from anxious thoughts * Why facing and accepting bodily symptoms of anxiety is not the same thing as enjoying or embracing them * The anxiety of Christ in the garden and how to offer up ours with His

Ryan J. Moreau is a Husband, Father of five, Entrepreneur, Catholic revert, North Idaho transplant and the CEO of Hope Is Fuel, a “movement” he co-founded with Patrick Coffin. Ryan’s journey to “hope” has not been without some serious bumps and bruises. While he’s experienced the highs and lows that most come to expect with an entrepreneurial career, it was his ten year journey back to the fullness of the faith and his suffering through two serious bouts of anxiety and depression that reminds us all of how God still can draw straight with crooked lines.
With Hope Is Fuel, Ryan is not interested in growing his own personal brand. This project has always been about bringing more truth, greater unity, a stronger community and a life that is deeply rooted in prayer. In fact, when joining Patrick to launch Hope Is Fuel, Ryan has been convicted to make sure that this project remains grounded in Catholic Philosophy while appealing to a wider, more secular audience.
In this Episode You Will Learn * The story of how Patrick and Ryan met * About his prayer filled journey back to the Catholic faith * How Hope Is The Fuel of life and how the “movement” got its name * What the most recent Course, “Catholic on Purpose” is all about * What to do in a rip current and how that correlates to the Church and culture today * Why prayer is the key to connecting with God and how it is the key to having the “eyes to see and ears to hear” * What Hope Is Fuel is hoping to accomplish and achieve in the long term * The future plans for Hope Is Fuel and what Patrick and Ryan are currently working on

Did you ever wonder why certain movies resonate with audiences all over the world? Why some grab you for two hours in the dark, but then like so much cinematic MSG, you forget these flash-in-the-pans by the time you get to the car – while others hold you in their spell for years?
This is the mystery I explore with Father Robert Spitzer, SJ, president of the Magis Center of Reason and Faith in Irvine, CA. Digging into a fascinating section of his book The Soul’s Upward Yearning: Clues to Our Transcendent Nature from Experience and Reason, Father Spitzer and I talk about the Power of Myth at work in four of the top movie franchises of Hollywood history: Star Wars, Harry Potter, The Lord of the Rings, and The Chronicles of Narnia films.
Turns out, these examples all share certain common elements that invite the viewer (or reader, if the book) into an adventure that forces a choice, a crisis, which leads ultimately a catharsis, or cleansing of the soul. But, as is his wont, the Jesuit scholar goes deeper than the platitudes about nice music and great dialogue. You’ll learn about Rudolf Otto and the numinous, Carl Jung and archetypes, Joseph Campbell and the hero’s journey, and Mircea Eliade and mythical structure.
I know, I know, it this sounds too deep for mere mortals. Give it a chance. Stretching a bit mentally pays handsome dividends, including a new appreciation for what makes great movies great.
We all know about the Sixties, both the decade and the cultural ethos it generated. But do we know the players, leaders, architects, and financiers who created the Sexual Revolution that made the Sixties infamous?
Dr. Jennifer Roback-Morse, author and foundress of The Ruth Institute, has the answers. Her stemwinder of a book, The Sexual State: How Elite Ideologies Are Destroying Lives and Why the Church Was Right All Along, tells the sordid tale, naming names and taking no prisoners.
In this interview you will learn:
- When the “Sixties” actually began
- The roots of dissent inside the Catholic Church and how it became allied with the Church’s secular enemies
- How elites like John D. Rockefeller III worked to insinuate population control ideas within the Church hierarchy
- Why divorce, contraception, and transgender ideology all tend toward the same purpose
- What parents can do to counter the bad ideas that swamp college campuses regarding sex, marriage, and faith.

His official title was Honorary Chaplain to the Queen (QHC), kind of a big deal for any Anglican clergyman. Then Rt. Rev Gavin Ashenden held the position from 2008 until 2017, when he left following, inter alia, a public liturgical reading in a Glasgow cathedral from the Quran that denied the divinity of Christ.
A good Protestant, he protested. And then he parted ways with the established church.
The rest of the story is told in this interview with England’s highest-profile Catholic convert, received into the Catholic Church in December 2019.
In this episode you will learn * The main influences in his spiritual life and the incident that triggered his conversion * His thoughts on the Alpha Program * Why he didn’t join the Anglican Ordinariate, erected by Pope Benedict XVI * How nationalism, hyper-intellectualism, and collective pride have co-opted the Protestant world * Why he stayed outside the Church for so long while understanding her better than many Catholics * The strange rage from friends and family that so often gets unleashed at Catholic converts * Ashenden’s plans for the future

Tucker Carlson is very good at what he does, which is engage guests and topics on his prime time-slotted Fox News show Tucker Carlson Tonight. With aplomb and wit—which is hard when your guest is an angry eedjit,as the Irish say—he gets down to brass tacks on whatever the topic is.
His brand new book is titled Ship of Fools: How a Selfish Ruling Class Is Bringing America to the Brink of Revolution. And he means it. His thesis: you can have egalitarianism AND oligarchy. One of the has got to go. Yet the book, like its creator, is often hilarious in its own way.
In this episode you will learn: * Who the major players are—the “fools” of the title—and why they’re included * Why elites and oligarchs come in all religions, or none, and all skin colors * A brief history of how American culture shifted toward Krazy in the last few years * How the 2016 election of Donald Trump was a sign of electoral unhappiness that got worse over decades * How liberals sell fake science, climate change (denying contrary evidence) and why abortion is the untouchable sacrament of the Left * Some reasons to keep a sense of humor!

Let’s face it. Everyone is addicted to something. Our fallen natures are bent toward false substitutes for God.
Mark McDonald deals in fear addiction as a psychiatrist with a specialization in helping children and he knows the damage wrought by the Covid nonsense plandemic. We have become a nation addicted to fear. His new book, Freedom From Fear: A 12 Step Guide to Personal and National Recovery, is a jolt of fine wine into the pitcher of Krazy Kovid Koolaid. Great read!
After this interview you will know:
- How fear acts as a drug on the mind
- Why the thesis here is inspired by the 12 Steps of AA and the 12 Rules for Life By Jordan Peterson
- Why you need to cut off the dealer of fear known as the legacy media
- How to get out of sheep mode and to despise the toxic opinions of the collective
- The role of narcissism in virtue-signaling through masks and “social distancing”
- The importance of a sense of humor
- Why the best way to grow your courage is to mentor others
- How to overrule your emotions and act in spite of your fears

Dr. Ann Gillies, PhD, has been a lone voice for psychological health in a context of aggressive LGBTQ+ propaganda in her native Canada. She has been a close observer of the culture wars in the key battleground of sexuality, gender, and human flourishing. Collating research from the famed Dr. Judith Reisman (RIP) and based on her own clinical experience and training, she has a very important antidote to “the crazy,” titled, Closing the Floodgates: Setting the Record Straight about Gender and Sexuality.
She joined me to talk about the roots of the homosexualist movement, the ravages of porn, scary changes to Canadian law, pedophile grooming, and the way forward for Christians and other social conservatives.

Peter Breggin is known as “the conscience of psychiatry” for his decades’ worth of patient advocacy, his opposition to psychotropic drugs and lobotomies, and his 100+ expert testimonies at lawsuit trials against Big Pharma. An author or co-author of over 20 books, he has, with his wife Ginger Ross Breggin, released perhaps his most important work, Covid-19 and the Global Predators: We Are the Prey.
It’s not a book about Covid. It’s THE book about Covid.
This is what Dr.Breggin and I discuss in this interview: the meticulously researched account of the origins of SARS-Cov2, the massive deceptions on the part of the Communist Chinese, and the elite billionaires who pull the global financial strings behind the scenes on the whole phenomenon. If you’re brand new to what’s really going on, this is a good place to start.

In the past three years, rates of anxiety, depression, and suicide have tripled. Loss of identity and purpose is rampant and a collective fear and sadness has become overwhelming. Morale has reached an all time low no matter where you find yourself in the world.
We need a solution. Answers we can trust.
On Saturday, March 18th, 2023, eight mental health experts are coming together to offer time-tested solutions for anxiety, depression, and despair beyond dangerous drugs, outdated theories, and New Age platitudes.

Smart phones have given rise to a nation of zombies. You see them everywhere, staring vacantly at their glowing screens in restaurants, amusement park line-ups, in churches, park benches, and family dining room tables.
In his book Glow Kids, Dr. Nicholas Kardaras has laid his finger on a growing problem that few are willing to tackle let alone diagnose and treat. Some people even argue that glowing screens might even be good for kids as a form of interactive educational tool.
This interview will shed light on the causal connection between smart phone use and school shootings, lethargy, and general anger management issues (notice how kids react when their visual drug is taken from them!) Parents, teachers, and pastors, listen up!

Tim Gordon and I discovered over time that we are both somewhat afflicted with above-average anxiety. In this frank conversation, we get into some of the fears and anxieties (they are virtual synonyms) that have plagued us and how we got through rough spots.
Catholics, particularly Catholic men, can often have a hard time accepting that they are so afflicted, as though feeling nervous is a moral flaw or sign of weakness. This false belief, of course, becomes the basis for the next round of anxiety. We both think this very personal and transparent interview will be an important episode of The Patrick Coffin Show. Many suffer in silence. No more!
After this interview, you will know:
- Why the Australian Dr. Claire Weekes made such a vital contribution to the management of nervous conditions and chronic, even deep seated, anxiety
- The four steps of Weekes’ method: face, accept, float through, and let time pass.
- How the fear of fear quickly becomes another cause of anxiety
- The role of faith and a relationship with Christ can be a huge help in the search for inner peace
- Why exercise and plenty of water is so important to recovery from anxious thoughts
- Why facing and accepting bodily symptoms of anxiety is not the same thing as enjoying or embracing them
- The anxiety of Christ in the garden and how to offer up ours with His

“Where have all the cowboys gone?” sang feminist singer Paula Cole back in the 90s. She has a point.
Professor Anthony Esolen has been writing about the decline of masculine leadership for decades. His latest book, No Apologies: Why Civilization Depends on the Strength of Men gets straight to the point, and so does he in this interview. The confusion over male headship and the ignoring of uniquely masculine traits just got a blast of light and insight from one of our best Catholic thinkers.
In this Interview You Will Learn * How masculinity got the toxic label and by whom * Why patriarchy is the answer to male domination and male responsibility * Examples from media and pop culture on anti-male, anti-father bias * Why only men can model masculinity for young boys * The connection between the acceptance of contraception and the current war on marriage * How the trans movement has targeted young girls especially * Why “the equality of men and women” is never qualified beyond feminist assumptions * How to be a man, and to teach masculine identity, without apology

Lt. Col. Dave Grossman is one of my top 1% favorite guests. His expertise in the psychology of killing, his work as a scholar and US Army professional, and his straightforward communication style make him the ideal guest for the topic: what is the only causal factor in the personal backgrounds of every single school mass murderer?
He is the director of the Warrior Science Group and lectures all over the world.
This interview must be shared widely. “School shootings” and terrorist attacks are going to get much worse and we need to be prepared, without succumbing to the paralysis of fear. God wins, and there are things ordinary people can do to detect, deter, and defeat these killers in our midst.

Very few journalists who are practicing Catholics are willing to honestly tackle the corruption in the Church by naming names, digging until the truth is unearthed, confronting bad guys, making antagonists squirm.
This is what George Neumayr does, chiefly as a correspondent for The American Spectator, but elsewhere as a freelancer. He has gone after the DC Swamp (Catholic Edition) for some years now, telling the true, often horrifying, story of malfeasance and other forms of corruption (sexual and financial) among priests and prelates in what he describes as the epicenter of the priestly abuse scandal that first broke nationally in Boston 2002, with ongoing tremors to this day.
Neumayr is doing what the official Catholic establishment media won’t do. His work is a testament to the power one man can have when writing the truth.

Naomi Wolf is one of the least likely candidates to have arisen as a leader in the fight against the massive deception known as the Covid plandemic. The feminist journalist and Democrat presidential adviser got red pilled virtually from the outset of the lockdown routines in New York under corrupt ex-Governor Cuomo.
The blessing for the rest of us is that she has put out a book that connects countless dots showing where the corruption began, the locations of its axis of evil, and how you can spot the lies. She sat down with me to talk about her newest book, titled The Bodies of Others: The New Authoritarians, COVID-19 and The War Against the Human.
After this interview you will know:
👉Dr. Wolf’s first inkling that the world of free humans was being lied to on a massive scale 👉The CCP/Pfizer/PCR test equipment money trail 👉How the elites took away analog living (hugs, singing together, board games, communal worship, etc.) and imposed digital living (Zoom meetings, everything online, QR codes, masks, “social distancing,” etc.) 👉How fear got harnessed by the cabal to encourage compliance 👉The insightful “bear anecdote” 👉How religion got redefined from human activity to discarnate unreality 👉How Dr. Wolf began to ponder the metaphysical nature of this current evil 👉Critical thinking as key to stop falling for propaganda

On Twitter, mathematics Ph.D. (Cornell) Dr. Briggs is @famedcelebrity, and his website subtitle is “Statistician to the Stars”—both digs at our culture’s silly celeb worship. He co-authored an important book about the Covid scam titled The Price of Panic, and has a new one out, that does many things well, including explaining the difference between conservative and based; and scores of examples of fallacies and how to spot them.
A very enjoyable exchange with a natural raconteur, practicing Catholic, and man of hard science and logic.

This episode debuted exactly five years ago, and I could think of no better show this year to honor my all-time favorite movie, Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life (1947) through the eyes of two women with close ties to its creation.
If Mr. Capra didn’t write it, why do I call it “Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life? It’s because that’s how the movie was marketed, which helps explain why the film got only a so-so reception when it was first released. Most of Mr. Capra’s pre-World War II movies were so sweet-hearted that they later earned the moniker “Capracorn,” not meant as a compliment.
It’s a Wonderful Life is one of the most critically acclaimed films ever made. Nominated for five Academy Awards including Best Picture, recognized by the American Film Institute as one of the 100 best American films ever made, and placed number 11 on its initial 1998 greatest movie list, it also ranked number one on its list of the most inspirational American films of all time.
Think about that. In light of the fact that hundreds of thousands of movies have been made, this is a jaw-dropping achievement.
By the end of the Second World War, though, the mood of the movie-going public had shifted, as I wrote about the making of the movie in National Review a few years ago HERE.
The next day after it was published, an appreciative email from a woman named Mary Owen arrived in my inbox. Turns out, Mary is the daughter of actress Donna Reed, who played Mary Bailey, the wife of James Stewart’s George Bailey.
I thanked her for the lovely email and we had a few back-and-forths. After my podcast was up on two feet and spreading around the world (110 countries and counting), I thought it would be fun to have her on the show to talk about her mother’s role in this now-international favorite Christmas movie and to learn some back story to her mother’s career and her commitment to writing back to the G.I’s who wrote to her from the trenches and the gun turrets of World War II.
The interview segues nicely into the next one, a rich conversation with actress Karolyn Grimes who played Zuzu, one of the four Bailey kids. Remember Zuzu’s petals? This was a real treat for me who loves the movie so well, and I know it will be for you as well.
I learned, among other things, how much Mrs. Grimes suffered as a teen when her mother died and then the next year her father was killed and she became a ward of the state—then “rescued” by an aunt and uncle in Missouri, which was an unhappy home situation. Karolyn also played Debbie, the daughter of David Niven and Loretta Young in another Christmas favorite, The Bishop’s Wife.
For those of us who can’t gobble up enough trivia and true stories about It’s a Wonderful Life, Mrs. Grimes is a treasure trove of first-hand memories and insights! Yes, I was star-struck, okay? Is that so wrong?
Merry Christmas!

This week’s guest is a mentor and kind of spiritual mother to Milo Yiannopoulos (whose very candid interview with me was Episode 101) and wrote the bracing Foreword to his latest book (see link below). Dr Rachel Fulton Brown is a tenured professor of history at the University of Chicago, and a renowned medieval scholar with a speciality in the area of devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary.
She is also a fervent convert to the Catholic Faith. In this episode we dive deep into the biblical and historical roots of the role of the Blessed Mother in salvation history, and suggest ways to answer objections to the truth about Mary.
In this episode you will learn: * Why we say Mary is the Mother of God and not just the Mother of Jesus * Why all Marian doctrine is Christological in nature * How the medieval era got things right regarding the role of Mary in the life of the Church * When devotion to Mary went into eclipse and how to revive it * Why Our Lady is a powerful intercessor for all mankind, not just Catholics * The reason why all the titles of Mary in all the litanies can never exhaust her beauty nor the full truth about her person and mission.
Resources mentioned in this episode * Mary and the Art of Prayer: The Hours of the Virgin in Medieval Christian Life and Thought by Rachel Fulton Brown * From Judgment to Passion: Devotion to Christ and the Virgin Mary, 800–1200 by Rachel Fulton Brown * The World’s First Love by Ven.

In case you missed it, a fantastic encore episode with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Finally, someone has exposed the corruption of the tiny tyrant from Brooklyn, Anthony Fauci. And who better than trial attorney and best-selling author Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. chairman of Children’s Health Defense? Fauci’s crimes predate the Covid catastrophe of 2020 and date back to the AIDS era in which thousands of homosexuals were killed by the toxic chemical drug AZT authorized by Fauci himself? Kennedy spoke with me about his book, which brings the receipts: The Real Anthony Fauci: Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health. Massively and meticulously researched, this is an extremely important contribution to the fight for health and sanity.
Most books by Christians about the atheism v theism debate start with the reasonableness of faith. Popular radio host and author Eric Metaxas starts with the reasonableness of science as filled with evidential power for the existence of God as can be known by faith. His brand new book is titled Is Atheism Dead? And what a stemwinder it is. Truly thought-provoking stuff hiding in plain sight—evidence of intentional and intelligent design. In this Episode You Will Learn * Why Metaxas decided to take the fight, so to speak, to the scientists * The miraculous properties of water * The staggering unlikelihood that the moon’s (small) size and distance to the sun (huge size) would line up as appearing to be the same dimensions as seen from earth * The conversion to theism (at a bare minimum) of high profile atheists Jean Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, and Antony Flew * Why atheists are often bitterly opposed to even the idea of God * An array of incredibly fascinating facts hidden in nature that point to God as First Cause * The difference between the God of the philosophers and the Father of Jesus Christ * Reasons why faith is reasonable and not contrary to reason

On February 10, 2022, on the eve of the ninth anniversary of the “abdication” of Pope Benedict XVI, I released a video titled “Seven pieces of evidence that Pope Francis is an anti-pope.”
If you are new to this evidence, believe me, I understand the cognitive dissonance it creates first.
If you are beyond tired of trying to explain to yourself and to others the crazy things done and said by Jorge Mario Bergoglio, and wondering how our Lord Jesus Christ could want this globalist modernist as His Vicar, give this episode a listen.
After this interview, you will know: * Why Canon 332.2 of the 1983 code of canon law clearly shows that a Pope must renounce the office (“munus” in Latin) of the papacy in order to validly abdicate. * Canon 332.2 in context * The difference between munus and ministerium * Why words matter * Why even if Francis was the most orthodox Catholic in history, he would be pope * The reason why so many trads and conservatives reject this evidence * How we know the Holy Father deliberately designed an impeded See * What the average Catholic can do
Resources Mentioned * VIDEO on the Seven Pieces of Evidence * Two-part INTERVIEW with Estefanía Acosta on this blog * Five-part REFUTATION of the Substantial Error theory by Estefanía Acosta * Benedict XVI, Pope Emeritus? By Estefanía Acosta * VIDEO of Benedict XVI reading the Declaratio * Linguistic ANALYSIS of the Declaratio text by Bro. Alexis Bugnolo * ESSAY by Matthew Hanley on the evidence in Front Page magazine * INTERVIEWwith Hanley on The Patrick Coffin Show

Naomi Wolf is one of the least likely candidates to have arisen as a leader in the fight against the massive deception known as the Covid plandemic. The feminist journalist and Democrat presidential adviser got red pilled virtually from the outset of the lockdown routines in New York under corrupt ex-Governor Cuomo.
The blessing for the rest of us is that she has put out a book that connects countless dots showing where the corruption began, the locations of its axis of evil, and how you can spot the lies. She sat down with me to talk about her newest book, titled The Bodies of Others: The New Authoritarians, COVID-19 and The War Against the Human.
After this interview you will know:
👉Dr. Wolf’s first inkling that the world of free humans was being lied to on a massive scale
👉The CCP/Pfizer/PCR test equipment money trail
👉How the elites took away analog living (hugs, singing together, board games, communal worship, etc.) and imposed digital living (Zoom meetings, everything online, QR codes, masks, “social distancing,” etc.)
👉How fear got harnessed by the cabal to encourage compliance
👉The insightful “bear anecdote”
👉How religion got redefined from human activity to discarnate unreality
👉How Dr. Wolf began to ponder the metaphysical nature of this current evil
👉Critical thinking as key to stop falling for propaganda

Let’s face it. Everyone is addicted to something. Our fallen natures are bent toward false substitutes for God.
Mark McDonald deals in fear addiction as a psychiatrist with a specialization in helping children and he knows the damage wrought by the Covid nonsense plandemic. We have become a nation addicted to fear. His new book, Freedom From Fear: A 12 Step Guide to Personal and National Recovery, is a jolt of fine wine into the pitcher of Krazy Kovid Koolaid. Great read!
After this interview you will know:
- How fear acts as a drug on the mind
- Why the thesis here is inspired by the 12 Steps of AA and the 12 Rules for Life By Jordan Peterson
- Why you need to cut off the dealer of fear known as the legacy media
- How to get out of sheep mode and to despise the toxic opinions of the collective
- The role of narcissism in virtue-signaling through masks and “social distancing”
- The importance of a sense of humor
- Why the best way to grow your courage is to mentor others
- How to overrule your emotions and act in spite of your fears

The evidence that the true Pontiff of the Catholic Church is His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI is clear and straightforward according to Matthew Hanley. The award-winning Catholic ethicist joins me this week to talk about how he came to discover the evidence that Jorge Mario Bergoglio is our latest anti-pope (after several centuries), and why this conclusion can no longer be called fringe or rad trad in nature. After this interview, you will know: * The step-by-step journey taken by Hanley toward the full clarity of the evidence * The difference between the canonical crimes of the St. Gallen Mafia in the March 2013 Conclave and the Declaratio read by His Holiness on February 11, 2013 * The difference between munus and ministerium and why it matters * Which key word is missing from Benedict’s “abdication” * Why the evidence and its conclusion have nothing to do with sedevacantism * The real meaning of antipope * Clues that the Pope knows he created an Impeded See and is therefore the true office holder of the papacy * What ordinary Catholics should and can do in light of this evidence
Resources Mentioned * Francis: The First Anti-Pope in Centuries? In Front Page magazine by Matthew Hanley * The Ratzinger Code by Andrea Cionci * Two-part interview with Estefanía Acosta on the canonical aspects of the Benedict Is Pope evidence and conclusion * Five-part refutation of the so-called Substantial Error theory by Acosta: One, Two, Three, Four, Five

Tim Gordon and I discovered over time that we are both somewhat afflicted with above-average anxiety. In this frank conversation, we get into some of the fears and anxieties (they are virtual synonyms) that have plagued us and how we got through rough spots.
Catholics, particularly Catholic men, can often have a hard time accepting that they are so afflicted, as though feeling nervous is a moral flaw or sign of weakness. This false belief, of course, becomes the basis for the next round of anxiety. We both think this very personal and transparent interview will be an important episode of The Patrick Coffin Show. Many suffer in silence. No more!
After this interview, you will know:
- Why the Australian Dr. Claire Weekes made such a vital contribution to the management of nervous conditions and chronic, even deep seated, anxiety
- The four steps of Weekes’ method: face, accept, float through, and let time pass.
- How the fear of fear quickly becomes another cause of anxiety
- The role of faith and a relationship with Christ can be a huge help in the search for inner peace
- Why exercise and plenty of water is so important to recovery from anxious thoughts
- Why facing and accepting bodily symptoms of anxiety is not the same thing as enjoying or embracing them
- The anxiety of Christ in the garden and how to offer up ours with His

Father James Mawdsley decided to take a stand against the July 2021 attack on the traditional Latin Mass, the motu proprio Traditiones Custodes by Bergoglio and its December follow up clarification.
He willingly left the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter so as to speak out boldly against the start-at-the-top corruption of the Catholic Church without getting the FSSP in needless further conflict with the regime in Rome.
You might say Father has a history of taking stands. He spent 415 days in solitary confinement na Burmese prison, and did multiple stints therein for protesting human rights violations. This week’s episode was filmed before a live audience.
After this interview you will know:
- Why Mawdsley became a priest
- His mystical experience of the presence and power of God while in solitary confinement
- The roots of the current Church crisis
- Why attacks on the divine liturgy are attacks on the integrity of the whole Church
- His thoughts on whether Bergoglio is the true pope
- The quadrilogy of books he is writing
- The connection between the traditional Latin Mass and personal sanctity
- How to confront, or ignore, corrupt bishops and evil policies

Gary Zimak helps people with the most ordinary thing. Or at least apparently ordinary thing: he helps people to not worry. The Catholic speaker has been writing books, doing podcasts, and addressing conferences for over a decade and has it down to an art if not a science.
With the Covid tyranny in the last two and a half years, the effort to not worry has become even more intense and hard to master for many people. Which is why this conversation is so important.
After this interview, you will know:
- How Zimak overcame his own “worry wartism”
- The biblical basis for not worrying
- The difference between mundane worry and serious anxiety
- Tips on worry reduction if not total elimination of worry
- Jesus’ strong opinion on worry and the difference friendship with Him makes
- Why God continually commands us not to worry
- Why prayer is a decision not a feeling
- Strategies for remembering to be grateful

Father Charles Theodore Murr is a sort of post-Vatican II clerical Forrest Gump, having been closely associated with many influential Vatican prelates and other ecclesial and cultural influencers over many decades.
As a young priest in Rome, he worked alongside Canadian Archbishop (later Cardinal) Édouard Gagnon, who was commissioned by Pope Paul VI to document secret curial membership in Freemasonry. This is where the story goes downhill.
Or at least, the Gagnon Investigation went nowhere under Pope VI, John Paul I, and, very regrettably, also John Paul II.
POINTS COVERED
👉The reformers (Gagnon, Benelli, Murr, et al) and resisters (Villot, Gaggio, Casserole) of post-Conciliar Masonic infiltration.
👉Annibale Bugnini, designer of the Novus Ordo Missae (the New Mass of Paul VI) was a Mason and why that matters.
👉The three volume dossier presented to the ailing and apathetic Paul VI.
👉The concern expressed by Pope John Paul I and the effort to get to the bottom of the Masonic question—and the suspicious details surrounding the death of Pope John Paul I.
👉Why the globe-trotting activities of Pope John Paul II took precedence over routing out Curial Masons.
👉The real reason Archbishop Gagnon quit to become a missionary in the Colombian jungle.

Dr. Jones has a new book out—well, as usual, it’s a few books between two covers. This one covers the gamut of culture war content from a very interesting set of angles. It’s titled The Dangers of Beauty: The Conflict Between Mimesis and Concupiscence In the Fine Arts.
The whole idea is framed around painting in Italy, poetry in England, music in Germany, and influences everywhere from a variety of critical sources. Ever hear how “beauty is in the eye of the beholder?” Find out why this is not really, not fully, true. So much to chew on here.
After this interview you will know:
👉 The proper role of geometry and proportion in fine art
👉 The definition of the three transcendentals: goodness, truth, and our subject, beauty.
👉 Why pornography is not art
👉 The golden ratio and its role in architecture and painting
👉The subversion of German music by the Jewish Stanley Kubrick in A Clockwork Orange
👉 Why novelist Anthony Burgess renounced the Kubrick adaptation of his novel
👉 The artistic definition of mimesis and why it’s in conflict with concupiscence
👉 The culture reasons why modern church architecture
👉 How logos is integrated into true art

Today’s episode is the first of two interviews with Rachel Mastrogiacomo. Next week the guest is pro bono sexual abuse advocate Gene Gomulka. This week, the other guest joining Rachel is author and Catholic researcher Dr. Leon Podles, who appeared back in Episode 97 of this podcast, joins us to talk about Mastrogiacomo’s extraordinary case.
There’s no gentle way to say that she was satanically ritually raped by an admitted sexual predator, the former priest of the Diocese of San Diego, Jacob Bertrand. Then her pleas for help and justice from the Diocese led by Bishop Robert McElroy were ignored, denied, and deflected.
Hers is a maddening and heart-breaking story—at first, until you see her fighting spirit that manages to be gentle and prayerful at the same time.
PONTS COVERED
- The basic storyline of her SRA (satanic ritual abuse) grooming and eventual assault
- Her initial reaction and subsequent finding of her courage
- Why she is still Catholic
- Specifics of McElroy’s cover up
- Why McElroy’s elevation by Bergoglio to the red hat cardinal status is a slap in the face to victims like Mastrogiacamo
- How her story validates the research of Dr. Podles
- The big picture of sexual abuse cover-up in the Catholic Church in America
- Sources of hope and encouragement

Tim Gordon has a message for college-seekers: turn back; don’t do it. He co-written a book on this topic with Dr. Michael Robillard, titled Don't Go to College: A Case for Revolution, with a Foreword by Michael Knowles.
College or university experience is widely seen as the default “We All Do It” setting when it comes to making your way in life. But how true is that? Are there other alternatives that cost less, provide a bigger return on investment, and avoid college environment problems? This is the heart of why I had the host of Rules for Retrogrades on the podcast.
In this Interview You Will Learn * When colleges and universities turned to the dark side * Alternatives to college * Details on how colleges are bad idea factories at the cutting edge of everything that is wrong with society * Why Aristotle’s Four Causes matter and who removed the Formal and Final Causes out of the medieval university system * The real meaning of entrepreneurship * Why there is no such thing as “good debt” * The advantages of marrying young and starting a family on one income.

Fauci’s crimes predate the Covid catastrophe of 2020 and date back to the AIDS era in which thousands of homosexuals were killed by the toxic chemical drug AZT authorized by Fauci himself?
Kennedy spoke with me about his book, which brings the receipts: The Real Anthony Fauci: Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health. Massively and meticulously researched, this is an extremely important contribution to the fight for health and sanity.

Lt. Col. Dave Grossman is one of my top 1% favorite guests. His expertise in the psychology of killing, his work as a scholar and US Army professional, and his straightforward communication style make him the ideal guest for the topic: what is the only causal factor in the personal backgrounds of every single school mass murderer?
He is the director of the Warrior Science Group and lectures all over the world.
This interview must be shared widely. “School shootings” and terrorist attacks are going to get much worse and we need to be prepared, without succumbing to the paralysis of fear. God wins, and there are things ordinary people can do to detect, deter, and defeat these killers in our midst.
Read the rest and watch the interview on our website.

Father Charles Theodore Murr is a sort of post-Vatican II clerical Forrest Gump, having been closely associated with many influential Vatican prelates and other ecclesial and cultural influencers over many decades.
As a young priest in Rome, he worked alongside Canadian Archbishop (later Cardinal) Édouard Gagnon, who was commissioned by Pope Paul VI to document secret curial membership in Freemasonry. This is where the story goes downhill.
Or at least, the Gagnon Investigation went nowhere under Pope VI, John Paul I, and, very regrettably, also John Paul II.
POINTS COVERED
👉The reformers (Gagnon, Benelli, Murr, et al) and resisters (Villot, Gaggio, Casserole) of post-Conciliar Masonic infiltration.
👉Annibale Bugnini, designer of the Novus Ordo Missae (the New Mass of Paul VI) was a Mason and why that matters.
👉The three volume dossier presented to the ailing and apathetic Paul VI.
👉The concern expressed by Pope John Paul I and the effort to get to the bottom of the Masonic question—and the suspicious details surrounding the death of Pope John Paul I.
👉Why the globe-trotting activities of Pope John Paul II took precedence over routing out Curial Masons.
👉The real reason Archbishop Gagnon quit to become a missionary in the Colombian jungle.

A shocking video leaked out of China shows a CCP military seeming to be planning for an invasion of the island of Taiwan. The legacy media are very busy with the usual distraction m.o. (Ukraine/Russia, celebrity trial, endless Texas shooting coverage, gas and food price obsession, etc) while the CCP gets its war machine in place.
Former atheist Dr. Steven Mosher was the first western social scientist allowed into China in 1979, and seeing the Once Child policy, and witnessing how the Communist Chinese Party operates, made him a pro-life practicing Catholic. This is a very good information exchange to share.
POINTS COVERED
👉Signs that a video is not doctored, hence not fake news.
👉Recent history of the CCP’s attitude toward independent Taiwan
👉Why the CCP would chose now to invade
👉The definition and scope of the concept of a “Peoples’ War”
👉The true nature of life in China for innocent Chinese citizens
👉Why the Taiwan Straight is critical to international shipping
👉Why the CCP would want to get its hands on Taiwan’s computer chip manufacturing capabilities
👉The details of the disastrous Vatican/China agreement of 2018

Dr. E. Michael Jones writes thick books, which only means you get several books between two covers. One of these is Barren Metal: A History of Capitalism As the Conflict Between Labor and Usury.
The founder and editor of Culture Wars magazine returns to the podcast to talk about capitalism in light of Catholic teaching, usury, and why God must matter to economics. “Barren metal” is a reference to coins in a line spoken by Antonio to Shylock in Shakespeare’s Merchant of Venice
After this interview, you will know:
The various senses in which popes have used the word capitalism
The origins of modern Catholic economic thought
The traditional role played by the Jews in money lending industries
Why usury is unnatural and sinful, and why Dante placed usurers and sodomites in the same ring of hell in The Divine Comedy
Why capitalism is best understood as the conflict between usury and labor
How our Lord used money in parables and in teaching examples
Why mammon vs God is often the central biblical life decision

It was a Tuesday like any other. Tuesday, May 12, 2020, and Pastor James Altman mounted the pulpit at St. James the Lesser in LaCrosse, WI, to deliver his homily for daily Mass.
The topic was on how being a practicing Catholic and a devoted Democrat are incompatible. Delivered in his characteristic passion and clarity, it went viral. To say the least.
It led ultimately to a clash with his Bishop, William Callahan.
Father Altman was accused—wait for it—of being “divisive and ineffective” as a pastor, and removed from the parish, his priestly faculties suspended. There is a case pending from Rome regarding his status and future. His predicament as a “canceled priest” is a sign of the times in the Catholic Church.
Clergy and lait have much to learn from his witness to the truth of the one, holy, Catholic, and apostolic Faith. This interview was conducted in front of a live audience at a private event for members of Coffin Nation in and around Orange County.

Dr. Ann Gillies, PhD, has been a lone voice for psychological health in a context of aggressive LGBTQ+ propaganda in her native Canada. She has been a close observer of the culture wars in the key battleground of sexuality, gender, and human flourishing. Collating research from the famed Dr. Judith Reisman (RIP) and based on her own clinical experience and training, she has a very important antidote to “the crazy,” titled, Closing the Floodgates: Setting the Record Straight about Gender and Sexuality.
She joined me to talk about the roots of the homosexualist movement, the ravages of porn, scary changes to Canadian law, pedophile grooming, and the way forward for Christians and other social conservatives.

It started under Pope Paul VI, went underground under Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI, and was codified under Francis.
It’s modernist dissent, especially in the area of sexual ethics. Author John Gravino explains the recent history of leftist dissent, how it got wedged into seminary textbooks and sympathetic professors, and how Amoris Laetitia is the roaring back to life of 60-s-70s dissent in matters sexual.

Gene Gomulka is a retired military chaplain, ordained to the priesthood and named a Prelate of Honor in 1999 with the honorific title of
“Monsignor” by Pope John Paul II. Gomulka is also a pro bono sexual abuse advocate and investigator who assisted in the case background of the Anthony Gorgia lawsuit against the North American College, Timothy Cardinal Dolan, and other defendants.
Gomulka recently penned an open letter to the main Catholic editors in the United States, essentially calling them out for covering up abuse, running interference for the no-longer-trustworthy US bishops. This is an important and somewhat shocking interview with a man devoted to getting the truth about about the pattern of abuse, cover up, and promotion of homosexual predators.

In this episode of The Patrick Coffin Show, I review some of the establishment Catholic media reactions to my recent video about Pope Benedict still being the true Pontiff, and I invite Michael Voris to a live debate on the evidence on his own Church Militant platform.
CM Resistance members across the country got emails warning members that if they agree with the conclusion of the evidence, they will be removed, as the “theory” is guilty of “deliberately leading souls astray.”
Is that so?
Points Covered in this episode * Various responses to the video reveal a lot about bias and group think * Church Militant is vehemently opposed to evidence the leadership doesn’t seem to have examined closely * The aversion to having uncomfortable conversations * A call to adult conversation * The reality of copycat mimesis and group think * Friendly debate invitation
Resources mentioned in this episode * Seven Pieces of Evidence That Francis Is An AntiPope video * My live debate with Timothy Gordon on Rules For Retrogrades (interesting thread) * Steve Ray's blog smear * Church Militant livestream

Kyle Kemper is an entrepreneur, husband, and father. His mother Margaret (whose former husband was Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau) is also Justin Trudeau’s mother by her second husband Fred Kemper. This family connection to Justin gives Kyle Kemper a unique personal perspective on the tyrannical way his half-brother is governing Canada with police state tactics.
The cryptocurrency guru (he founded and runs Swiss Key) has choice words for what has happened to his native land during the (planned, fake, oligarchic) Covid “crisis,” thanks in large part to Justin’s role as a sock puppet to powerful international interests.
POINTS COVERED
👉When Kemper first had the green light/red pill experience regarding the Covid lie
👉How the media and law enforcement agencies collude with the Canadian government to persecute and deceive is own citizens
👉Why vax passports are about mining your data and invading your privacy more than “health”

On Twitter, mathematics Ph.D. (Cornell) Dr. Briggs is @famedcelebrity, and his website subtitle is “Statistician to the Stars”—both digs at our culture’s silly celeb worship. He co-authored an important book about the Covid scam titled The Price of Panic, and has a new one out, that does many things well, including explaining the difference between conservative and based; and scores of examples of fallacies and how to spot them.

Richard Decarie is a double anomaly: a practicing Catholic in secular Quebec, and a social conservative in “liberal Conservative/libertarian” circles.
Decarie, an entrepreneur and media influencer, was the major player responsible for getting former Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s support for the PM role in French-speaking Quebec, and knows Canadian politics and its history inside out. He was also at the Ottawa mega-event featuring 50,000+ anti-mandate truckers from all across the country and parts of the US.
In this episode, you will learn * Why this convey event was convened (last minute!) and what it means for the elites who run Canada * What the Trucker vs Trudeau clash is really about * Why “freedom” is not the right goal to have if you want long term success * Anecdotes from on the ground at Parliament Hill * Why Decarie’s plain-spoken answers on television to a question about “being gay” got him bounced from the national leadership of the Progressive Conservative Party, and what t says about “conservatism” in Canada * Why he started Conservative Union what its goals are * How to reach Canadians about the Christian foundations of Canada * Why so many people are slowing waking up to the lies behind the scamdemic.

Attorney John Carpay is a voice crying in the Canadian wilderness against the self-evident tyranny and hysteria behind the Covid crisis. He is the founder and president of the Justice Center for Constitutional Freedoms in Calgary and is fighting legal battles across the country.
Carpay also gave an outstanding talk at the Truth Over Fear summit, which I highly recommend. What is happening in Canada is simply a more aggressive version of what’s happening elsewhere. Too few Canadians are standing up for their own rights. John Carpay wants to change that.

Bishop Athanasius Schneider, ORC, auxiliary bishop of Astana, Kazakhstan, knows a thing or two about devotion to the Holy Eucharist. His parents were sent to a gulag by Stalin after World War II, and led the underground Church at great personal risk.
His Excellency has been a forthright commentator and at times critic of the heterodox, liberal trend in the Catholic Church under Francis, and articulate as to why Catholics would not take a vaccine that is tested or manufactured on body parts vivisected from a baby that has been tortured and murdered.
Bishop Schneider is hard-hitting but soft-phrasing, appealing to truth and unity over angry polemics. He recently published a pastoral reflection, The Duty of The Roman Pontiff To Restore Liturgical Peace, which asks Francis to repeal his July 2021 motu proprio Traditiones Custodes and its later responsa ad dubia by the Congregation of Divine Worship and the Sacraments under Archbishop Arthur Roche, a Francis appointee.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN
👉What the holy Mass is and what it’s the “source and summit of the Christian life”
👉The massive discontinuity between the traditional Latin Mass of 1962 and the innovation imposed on the universal Church in 1969 by Paul VI, aka the Novus Ordo Missae
👉How the “Mass of Vatican II” (a little known 1965 quasi-reformed Latin liturgy was replaced by an experimental 1967 liturgy by Father Annibale Bugnini
👉The proper context of the current attack on the traditional Latin Mass under Francis
👉How the Novus Ordo Missae, while still objectively valid, Protestantized and banalized Catholic worship
👉What inspired the bishop to confront and rebuke Francis in this matter

My guest James Corbett this week debunks official narratives for a living. His Corbett Report is a must-save source for alternative news and views. And in this episode of my podcast, James walks us through the true history of al-Qaeda, from the players to the multi-layered deceptions promoted via the American media, to the group’s nature and aims.
The Covid scam has got millions of people rethinking “official stories” promoted by the same cabal that gave us previous nonsensical, or outright false, events and interpretations thereon. This is a great conversation to share with your normie friends.
After this interview you will know:
👉The origin of the term Al-Qaeda
👉How double (and triple!) agents have operated as go-betweens in the “American” vs “Muslim” worlds with the obvious support of the United States military
👉The unlikely true story of triple agent par excellence Ali Mohammad
👉Why these terrorists keep successfully getting on airplanes, creating deadly havoc, and seem to get caught only very rarely
👉The backstory on the kingpin himself, Osama bin Laden, his rise to power and his ongoing influence.
👉The Washington/Hollywood connection in the world of “the war of terror”
👉How the creation of the Al-Qaeda myth is emblematic of many other media-created storylines fed to the public

This episode debuted exactly four years ago, and I could think of no better show this year to honor my all-time favorite movie, Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life (1947) through the eyes of two women with close ties to its creation.
If Mr. Capra didn’t write it, why do I call it “Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life? It’s because that’s how the movie was marketed, which helps explain why the film got only a so-so reception when it was first released. Most of Mr. Capra’s pre-World War II movies were so sweet-hearted that they later earned the moniker “Capracorn,” not meant as a compliment.
It’s a Wonderful Life is one of the most critically acclaimed films ever made. Nominated for five Academy Awards including Best Picture, recognized by the American Film Institute as one of the 100 best American films ever made, and placed number 11 on its initial 1998 greatest movie list, it also ranked number one on its list of the most inspirational American films of all time.
Think about that. In light of the fact that hundreds of thousands of movies have been made, this is a jaw-dropping achievement.
By the end of the Second World War, though, the mood of the movie-going public had shifted, as I wrote about the making of the movie in National Review a few years ago HERE.
The next day after it was published, an appreciative email from a woman named Mary Owen arrived in my inbox. Turns out, Mary is the daughter of actress Donna Reed, who played Mary Bailey, the wife of James Stewart’s George Bailey.
I thanked her for the lovely email and we had a few back-and-forths. After my podcast was up on two feet and spreading around the world (110 countries and counting), I thought it would be fun to have her on the show to talk about her mother’s role in this now-international favorite Christmas movie and to learn some back story to her mother’s career and her commitment to writing back to the G.I’s who wrote to her from the trenches and the gun turrets of World War II.
The interview segues nicely into the next one, a rich conversation with actress Karolyn Grimes who played Zuzu, one of the four Bailey kids. Remember Zuzu’s petals? This was a real treat for me who loves the movie so well, and I know it will be for you as well.
I learned, among other things, how much Mrs. Grimes suffered as a teen when her mother died and then the next year her father was killed and she became a ward of the state—then “rescued” by an aunt and uncle in Missouri, which was an unhappy home situation. Karolyn also played Debbie, the daughter of David Niven and Loretta Young in another Christmas favorite, The Bishop’s Wife.
For those of us who can’t gobble up enough trivia and true stories about It’s a Wonderful Life, Mrs. Grimes is a treasure trove of first-hand memories and insights! Yes, I was star-struck, okay? Is that so wrong?
Merry Christmas!

Peter Breggin is known as “the conscience of psychiatry” for his decades’ worth of patient advocacy, his opposition to psychotropic drugs and lobotomies, and his 100+ expert testimonies at lawsuit trials against Big Pharma. An author or co-author of over 20 books, he has, with his wife Ginger Ross Breggin, released perhaps his most important work, Covid-19 and the Global Predators: We Are the Prey.
It’s not a book about Covid. It’s THE book about Covid.
This is what Dr.Breggin and I discuss in this interview: the meticulously researched account of the origins of SARS-Cov2, the massive deceptions on the part of the Communist Chinese, and the elite billionaires who pull the global financial strings behind the scenes on the whole phenomenon. If you’re brand new to what’s really going on, this is a good place to start.

Journalist, Catholic pilgrimage leader, and now freedom fighter Monica Smit didn’t grow up in a politically active family and didn’t pay much attention to things like health care, elections, and medical industry corruption.
But she is committed to the full-tilt fight of her life against her own government’s police state-like overreach (been banned, got arrested and jailed in solitary confinement for 22 days, for starters) on behalf of not just her fellow Australians, but anyone in democratic countries who are watching their freedoms vanish thanks to the coronadoom scam.
The short version: it’s really bad in Australia, and this remarkable young woman ain’t having it.
👉How and when she knew Australia was falling into Covid-led totalitarianism
👉How Australian incitement laws work and how she was trapped in their nets.
👉The effect of three weeks’ work of psychological torture known as solitary confinement
👉Details of how vaccine apartheid regime has arisen
👉Why she issued her famous SOS to the world
👉How her rediscovered Catholic Faith has sustained her in trial after trial
👉How she deals with weak Vichy Bishops who to this day lock Catholics out of the sacraments.

Los Angeles-based psychiatrist Mark McDonald noticed early in 2020 how badly children and families were faring under the Covid lockdown panic: massive levels of stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, domestic violence, suicidal ideation—all connected to the fear being stoked by public health authorities and their media lapdogs.
A member of America’s Frontline Doctors, McDonald has been outspoken and has gained a whole new batch of enemies—and friends. He put his message in one place, a new book titled, United States of Fear: How America Fell Victim to a Mass Delusional Psychosis. He sat down with me to discuss how to see through the lies and take back you

Patriarchy has fallen on bad times. Feminism, weak men, apathy, and an activist media have been attacking the whole idea of patriarchy for two generations.
“Chauvinist!” “Misogynist!” “Brute!” are some of the charges thrown at men since the 60s. But what if patriarchy is the manifest embodiment of God’s order in the world? What if men and women both benefited from the blessings of patriarchy? Lawyer, podcaster, and writer Tim Gordon has produced a red-pill dispensary in the form of a new book, The Case For Patriarchy. We need to talk.

Finally, someone has exposed the corruption of the tiny tyrant from Brooklyn, Anthony Fauci. And who better than trial attorney and best-selling author Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. chairman of Children’s Health Defense? Fauci’s crimes predate the Covid catastrophe of 2020 and date back to the AIDS era in which thousands of homosexuals were killed by the toxic chemical drug AZT authorized by Fauci himself?
Kennedy spoke with me about his book, which brings the receipts, The Real Anthony Fauci: Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health. Massively and meticulously researched, this is an extremely important contribution to the fight for health and sanity.
POINTS COVERED
👉The brief history of Fauci’s corruption and manifest crimes
👉The deaths of thousands of homosexuals with AIDS who were killed with Fauci-endorsed AZT
👉How the oligarchs who operate the pandemic have funneled more billions into the pockets of already-billionaires
👉How under Fauci’s reign, allergic, autoimmune, and chronic illnesses have mushroomed to afflict 54 percent of children, up from 12.8 percent when he took over NIAID in 1984
👉Why allergic diseases like asthma, eczema, food allergies, allergic rhinitis, and anaphylaxis suddenly exploded beginning in 1989, five years after he came to power.
👉Fauci’s historic role as the leading architect of “agency capture”—the corporate seizure of America’s public health agencies by the pharmaceutical industry.
👉The connections between the cabal that killed Kennedy’s father and uncle, and the cabal currently imposing global lockdowns and mass death today.

Popular radio host and author Eric Metaxas starts with the reasonableness of science as filled with evidential power for the existence of God as can be known by faith.

Dr. Vladimir “Zev” Zelenko just made an Antifa hitlist on a German website of 250 freedom fighting influencer’s marked for murder. Sad bunch of cowards the lot of them. People like Dr. Zev, who, while undergoing open-heart surgery, and surviving sarcoma, are willing to upstream against the grain and lead by example, starting with the manly virtue of courage, are what the world needs right now. He has actual science on his side when it comes to early treatment and prevention of Covid-19. His open letter to President Trump in April 2020, put hydroxychloroquine and zinc on the map, and that jumpstarted a firestorm of debate—all to the good, ultimately.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN
👉How early Zelenko figured out that Covid was a scam.
👉The lengths to which he went into researching what became his Z-Stack protocol for early treatment.
👉The straight analogy between Nazi Germany and the current Covid tyranny narrative.
👉Why the ZStack works to crush Covid symptoms early.
👉Why Zelenko does not hesitate to call this global phenomenon mass murder and genocide.
👉His message to Anthony Fauci and the academic fraudsters who run this crisis.
👉What keeps him going with a spirit of hope despite his grave health challenges and the enormity of the evil he is fighting.

No need to wonder if pilots and other transportation industry leaders are fighting the tyrannical vax mandates. Seasoned commercial airline pilot Jason Kunisch is resounding proof that the answer is yes. Kunisch has flown many types of aircraft, currently the Airbus A320 for a major airline.
A sizable minority of pilots (and locomotive engineers, and subway personnel, and Air Traffic Controllers) have joined him in the movement to demand relief from the mandate to get the Covid injection. The group is called US Freedom Flyers. And their work is catching on all over the world. This is a very important conversation not only for airline customers but all freedom fighters.
US Freedom Flyers is a group of transportation industry employees who have come together to fight federal and state mandates which aim to strip Citizens of their right to medical freedom. Together, in partnership with Health Freedom Defense Fund and The Davillier Law Group, we lead to preserve Informed Consent and defend Constitutional rights.
"Our goal is to push back against the US government’s threats of vaccine mandates for private businesses. We know this effort is not simply a matter of employees versus companies, but citizens opposing illegal and tyranical mandates by the US government".
In this Interview You Will Learn
👉The trigger moment that changed Kunisch’s life direction toward fighting tyranny
👉The reason why the pilots and others in US Freedom Fighters joined the effort
👉Why this crisis has never been about Covid or “safety”
👉The group’s outstanding legal team
👉Insights into how fat and happy everyone has become in talking liberty for granted
👉The relationship between mask compliance and “vaccine” compliance
👉Why Kunisch believes the tide is turning in the transportation industry

Aaron Kheriaty is about the opposite of the Casting Central stereotype of a sue-happy culture warrior. On the contrary, the Notre Dame/Georgetown-trained professor of psychiatry is the picture of calm, articulate communication. As a teaching psychiatrist also in clinical practice, the author of The Catholic Guide to Depression exudes compassion and respect for suffering people.
When his employer, the University of California Irvine, imposed the Covid vaccine on staff and faculty and refused to give Kheriaty an exception—because he already had Covid and hence already enjoyed the more powerful natural immunity—his options ran down to zero quickly.
So he sued UCI. This is a landmark case for several important reasons having nothing to do with Covid-19.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:
👉 The trigger point for this lawsuit.
👉 Why he decided to fight it out in the courts rather than give in and get the jab.
👉 What’s behind the excessively rough and accusatory language in UCI’s communications with him.
👉 How he went from acclaimed professor and mentor to campus pariah overnight.
👉 Why this is a hill worth dying on.
👉 How this lawsuit is a key test case for similar examples of tyrannical overreach and the violation of the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution.
👉 What you can do to help since you are indirectly implicated as a fellow plaintiff.

Few documentaries are as better time as Mass of the Ages written and directed by Cameron O'Hearn. This crowdfunded high-quality production was released only weeks after the infamous motu proprio Traditiones Custodes by Francis which to effectively torpedo the traditional Latin Mass around the world.
O’Hearn brings savvy storytelling skills to this trilogy to showcase the beauty and richness and depth of the Extraordinary Form of the Mass, the first episode of which debuted on YouTube on August 15, 2021. Right on time!

Mathematician Dr. William M. Briggs is back. The featured speaker at the recent Truth Over Fear summit and former guest on The Patrick Coffin Show returns to rock the podcast.
How can tell they’re lying to you about Covid statistics. Don’t be intimidated by a PHD from Cornell University. Dr. Briggs (known hilariously on Twitter as “Statistician to the Stars) breaks down the numbers in an engaging, accessible way.
This whole coronadoom panic is fueled by fake math. Learn how and why.
In this Interview You Will Learn * Why “cases” are irrelevant * The lies and flip flops of Tony Fauci * The true definition of statistical “models” * How the Covid-19 panic rates compared to previous “pandemics” in history (hint: it’s very mild) * Why society has been taught to view doctors as infallible oracles * Why mathematics is not a “pure science” * How to spot “stat fallacies”

Finally, a courageous Catholic journalist willing to accurately describe the behavior of the world’s bishops during the so-called pandemic. Phil Lawler is a 30-year veteran writer and editor with a long view of recent history, and he has written an outstanding book on the Covid scam from a Catholic perspective, Contagious Faith: Why the Church Must Spread Hope, Not Fear in a Pandemic.
If you have been angered or confused by the actions of Francis in Rome or your local Bishop regarding Covid-19, this will be an eye-opening conversation by an expert commentator on things Catholic and political.
In this Episode You Will Learn * The reasons why hope is a far more powerful motivator than fear * How the bishops colluded with the State in cutting off Catholics from worship and the sacraments * Examples of how the saints confronted actual deadly past pandemics * The conflicts that arise when a bishop imposes a law that is canonically unlawful or otherwise objectionable * How the anti-church protocols fly in the face of the US Constitution * The effects on Catholics when the sacraments are treated as optional or that watching Mass online is an acceptable substitute * How the Covid crisis has revealed a massive loss of faith among our leaders * How to keep and nurture your relationship with Christ despite weak or compromised episcopal actions
Resources Mentioned * Contagious Faith: Why the Church Must Spread Hope, Not Fear in a Pandemic by Philip Lawler * Lost Shepherd: How Pope Francis is Misleading His Flock by Philip Lawler * The Faithful Departed: The Collapse of Boston’s Catholic Culture by Philip Lawler

This is a biggie. America’s Frontline Doctors have brought in Ohio-based attorney Tom Renz to sue the Federal Government in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Alabama.
This suit, the first of its kind, is all about advocating for the estimated 45,000 deaths from the Covid “vaccine,” mighting assisted by the sworn affidavit by an anonymous whistle-blowing expert.
We are being lied to on a massive scale, says Renz. And God willing, the courts will settle the score and hold the oligarchs to account.
In this Interview You Will Learn * Why this lawsuit and others like it are so urgently needed * How the elites running this Covid scam are fudging, hiding, and denying the numbers in every single chance they get, from all angles * Why the whistleblower’s evidence is key, and why more people will likely join her in speaking out * How the mixed and flip-flopping messages of leaders like Gov. DeSantis and many Con Inc. media hosts are part of the problem * Why Renz decided enough is enough * The role of faith in this battle of the culture war for the soul of the nation.
Resources Mentioned * Thomas Renz law office website * The lawsuit text * America’s Frontline Doctor's website

This is about the cover-up of sexual perversion, grooming, and the spiritual abuse of vulnerable seminarians. It’s not rare for a seminarian to be ousted from a seminary for bogus reasons, which can further result in the loss of a vocation because of corrupt Church bureaucrats. What is rare is when a seminarian decides to push back and fight the corruption in the courts.
Enter the courageous Anthony Gorgia, represented by New York attorney Raymond Belair who joins me for this week's important episode of The Patrick Coffin Show.

POINTS COVERED * There is no substitute for the vital connection between the ideas of an author and the mind of a reader.
- According to Mortimer Adler, an author is like the pitcher, and he's throwing balls at you the catcher-reader with each sentence, each paragraph, each chapter. To properly engage a pitcher, a catcher can't crouch there passively because he'll either get hit by a fastball -- or a curveball will miss him altogether.

Mike Dowe has hundreds of stories about years as a prisoner of war in a communist prison camp. Dowe was a POW in a brutal camp north of the Yalu River in North Korea during the Korean conflict. His memories are vivid and unusually detailed.
The stories he loves to tell the most are about the priest he credits with keeping him (Dowe) and many hundreds of others alive during their unimaginable years of trial and deprivation at the hands of the communists.

“Amorous Leticia” is what my voice text recognition typed out once when I said, “Amoris Laetitia” (the 2016 Apostolic Exhortation by the man formerly known as Jorge Mario Bergoglio ) and it stuck.
There is a lot of talk today about the German bishops as the culprits of false sexual liberation and the rejection of the Catholic sexual ethic. This week’s guest, author John Gravino, says the Germans are simply representatives of the universal Church since the release of Amorous Leticia, which codifies the central errors of the infamous 1960s-70s dissenters. Many dots connected!
In this Interview You Will Learn * The names of the dissenters and what they held and rejected * How AL, especially Section 8 and its footnotes, cannot be reconciled with Veritatis Splendor by St. John Paul II and other previous Catholic moral teachings * How AL uses the term “irregular” as a proxy for accepting virtually any sexual sin by rejecting the notion of intrinsic evil * Why “moral norms are exceptionless” cannot be reconciled with the teaching of Pope Francis * How you can draw a straight line between the dissent establishment in seminaries and chanceries and the sexual abuse of minors. * How Bishop Robert Barron of Los Angeles defends dissent with sophistry and glib denials and deflections * How to level criticism of actual documents without bashing their authors.

In this video, you will learn what happened at the recently advertised “Community Zoom Chat moderated by Bishop Timothy Freyer.”
The event included Catholic parents submitting questions beforehand through the Zoom invite, and then given an email to ask another question.
The whole thing was a lie. The “community Zoom meeting” was not moderated by Bishop Freyer, who basically said little apart from assuring the attendees that “the Holy See” and “the US bishops” teach that the Covid 19 vaccine is safe and effective, etc, etc.
The person who sent the invitation by Twitter, Dr. Erin Barisano, Superintendent of Catholic Schools in the Diocese of Orange, CA. She appeared on the Brady Bunch-like video screen but said nothing.
No, the whole event was a sales pressure tactic with the obvious aim of breaking parental “vaccine hesitancy.” No questions or input from concerned parents. Just the same fear-mongering, manipulative deceptions we’re come to expect from Fauci and his sock puppets.
Not a peep about vaccine injuries, the swamped VAERS website. Only arrogant speech-making.
Why is the Diocese of Orange linking arms with the corrupt bureau-quack Clayton “fake Ph.D.” Chau, or the president of the local American Academy of Pediatrics, Dr. Kate Williamson, whose group advocates for abortions and transgender ideology for minors behind their parents’ backs? Who is paying who and why for this hard sell?
Catholic parents in the Diocese of Orange need to wake up. Our leaders (sic) do not have our children’s actual health and best interests in mind.

In this second episode of a two-part series, demonologist Adam Blai shares his in-depth personal knowledge of a living stigmatic who, by overwhelming evidence, undergoes the sorrowful Passion of Christ.
A private citizen and Catholic convert, this woman shares in an unprecedented way in Christ’s subjective experience of being betrayed, sweating blood, being arrested, scourged, and then crucified with Christ. She bears in her body the marks of Jesus’s torture and crucifixion.

In this two-part series with demonologist and author Adam Blai, we dig into the true nature of miracles. What is a miracle and what is a counterfeit? What criteria for miracles does the Church use when canonizing a Saint? And what about the stigmata?
We get into all of this and more. NB: the heart of the book is the true (and deeply unsettling) account of a female stigmatic who is known by Blai. Each Thursday at sundown, the convert and mother begin a mystical re-living of the Lord’s Passion, with Him and in some sense in Him. She bleeds at the classic bodily junctures (hands, feet, side, and head), which cause contusion, s welts, and physical and emotional exhaustion.

Learn the truth about Covid-19 and the dangers of the unapproved experimental vaccine from top renowned doctors at the Truth Over Fear Summit: www.restoretheculture.com
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
“Have you gotten the vaccine?” My boss says I have to take the vaccine.” “The vaccine is safe, right?” “What if I don’t take it?”
The world is awash with questions about the Covid 19 vaccine. Truthful answers are hard to come by. One reliable source for answers is renowned cardiac physician, scholar, and professor of medicine Dr. Peter McCullough, MD.
He says he can no longer recommend the Covid vaccines in conscience to pregnant women of any age. The evidence of injuries and deaths, he says, is overwhelming, and deliberately understated by the media. He sat down for an uncensored conversation that will be of particular interest to parents.
After this interview, you will know:
- Why this top teaching doctor changed his mind about the Covid-19 vaccines, whether Pfizer, Moderna, J&J, or Astra-Zeneca
- How all roads have always led to the vaccine
- Why the Japanese biodiversity study is a game-changer for vaccine danger awareness
- Why the collective tide is turning against Tony Fauci
- The horrible safety record of the Covid vaccines compared to the 1976 Swine Flu vaccine rollout
- Why now is critical that more and more doctors and attorneys join forces
- How the 2020-2021 response to Covid was fear-based, over-reactive, and tending toward totalitarian

Wokeism is everywhere: education, entertainment, politics, media, and even the military. But the most pernicious location? The Christian community, including the Catholic hierarchy in the last few years. The Social Justice Warrior (SJW) mentality behind wokeism infects all strata of our culture, most disconcertingly in the very places you would expect to find the sanity of clarity.
Writer, wife, and mother of six Noelle Mering nails the truth about the whole woke enterprise with her new book Awake Not Woke: A Christian Response to the Cult of Progressive Ideology.

You’ve heard the rebuttal, “Video games attract people who are drawn to violence to begin with, they don’t cause the violence.” Well, Lt. Col. Dave Grossman collects the data and brings the receipts: violent video games cause increased violent crime rates in some cases and are strongly correlated with many more.
Grossman knows what he’s talking about. He is a US Army Ranger, a paratrooper, and a former West Point Psychology Professor. He has a Black Belt in Hojutsu, the martial art of the firearm, and has been inducted into the USA Martial Arts Hall of Fame.
He helped train mental health professionals after the Jonesboro school massacre, and he was also involved in counseling or court cases in the aftermath of the Paducah, Springfield, Littleton and Nickel Mines Amish school massacres.
The year 2020 saw the highest spike in homicides in US history, and 2021 is shaping up to be worse thanks to the insane lockdowns and social isolation caused by the coronadoom fakedemic.

Emil Joseph Kapaun was a farm boy from Pilsen, Kansas, born in 1916 to a devout Czech Catholic family that eked out an existence during the Depression. Young Emil felt called to the priesthood and ended up a Chaplain to the U.S. Army during World War II, where he served admirably in the Burma Theater.
He re-enlisted and attained the rank of Captain when the Korean War broke out in 1950. And this is where his jaw-dropping heroism emerged. Father Kapaun, in the words of the soldiers he loved and served, was “all priest and all man.”

Like me and you, dear reader, Milo Yiannopoulos is on a journey toward the fullness of truth. he recently announced a major milestone along that journey. He is no longer behaving as homosexuals do and has dropped the gay label.
Why would the New York Times best-selling author and world's largest internet troll make such a bad business decision?
The answer, as he discloses in this rich, insightful, and entertaining three-hour interview, has something to do with sodomy being a sin and with his slowly becoming beyond sick and tired of the misery that attaches to the lifestyle.
This is my second interview with the utterly unpredictable Milo, and he gives a multi-layered account of why he came to that decision and what his plans are for the future.

"There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies and statistics." Thus famously spake Mark Twain. The plandemic has offered plenty of evidentiary fodder for Twain’s observation.
The mix-up causation with association. They (The Experts, I mean) toss off fallacy, half-truth, and presupposition, secure in the knowledge that MSM viewers are not terrible equipped to detect the lies.
Enter Cornell Ph.D. statistician William M. Briggs, co-author of The Price of Panic: How the Tyranny of Experts Turned a Pandemic into a Catastrophe.

It’s not easy standing up to the very industry you belong to. But some crises are too urgent and some stakes are too high to sit there and do nothing. So Dr. Patrick Phillips, MD of Englehart, Ontario, decided last fall that the data were not supporting the MSM narrative about Covid-19.
So he spoke up against the lockdowns, the mask army, and the misinformation being sold by the nexus of Big Media and Big Government (both are big “Bigs” in Canada). Listen in to this brave emergency and family care physician go against the grain on behalf of his patients and anyone who will listen.

Basilico's Pasta e Vino has been a staple local neighborhood Italian restaurant in Huntington Beach, CA since 1999, when founder Rosemarie created and introduced her original recipes, and traditional home-style rustic Italian cooking to Orange County. Son Tony built the restaurant at its current location as a gift to her, a tribute to her dedication sacrifices, and love for her customers and community. Now in its 21st year in business, Basilico's continues to serve its food and customers with great care and love! And in 2020 into 2021, it is no longer just a restaurant, but instead, a 1776 Tavern where Patriots gather, as they have pledged their business as a 'Constitutional Battleground' in the fight against all Lockdown Tyranny.
Three obvious things stand out about Basilico’s Pasta e Vino: the food is delicious, the line-ups are considerable, and no one is wearing a Fauci/Newsom mask. You read that right. No masks allowed. Mr. Roman refused to lock down his establishment since March 19, 2020, and will not permit customers to wear a mask upon entry. His restaurant has remained packed despite a direct challenge from CA Governor Gavin Newsom and the liquor board.
That decision earned him opprobrium (including more than one death threat) but mostly high accolades....

This interview with Dr. Scott Hahn goes to why I started the podcast and Coffin Nation. Hahn is well known and well-loved around the world for good reason. He combines faith and reason, the supernatural with the natural in a writing style that is accessible without pandering to the masses.
In his latest book, co-authored by Brandon McGinley, titled It Is Right and Just: Why the Future of Civilization Depends on True Religion, he lays out exactly why culture depends upon the transcendent values of a given populace. A much-needed contribution to the public conversation about the crises raging around us.

Alex Newman is what is called a generalist specialist. The journalist, reporter, and president of Liberty Sentinel has contributed to a wide array of conservative publications and platforms. He sees clearly the devastation wrought by the forces of tyranny around the world but also in our back yard in America.
How do we approach the machinery behind and within the Great Reset? What can families do to get educated fast?

Ever wonder about “secret societies” or have questions about the Bilderberg Group, or Davos, or the Illuminati—and then wonder if these are “conspiracy theory” nonsense? Do you ponder why the world is changing so quickly, seemingly overnight?
Author, filmmaker, and thought leader G. Edward Griffin has been red pilling people since the late 1960s, long before The Matrix came out. The 89-years young founder of Freedom Force International and Red Pill University sat down with me to talk Big Picture influences and take on some unquestioned presuppositions about things like the lockdown and the coming Covid-19 vaccine.

Mike Lindell is a graduate of the University of Hard Knocks. As Frank Sinatra sang in “That’s Life,” Lindell has “been down and out and over and under.” His support for President Trump has been unwavering, and it has certainly cost him. Day in, day out, he is lied about in the media.
His meeting (five minutes only, as it turned out) just before the slated inauguration date became famous in the media not for the evidence he presented to Donald Trump, but for the super close up photograph of his meeting notes. And now the hard left wants to destroy his business—the American success story of MyPillow. Hear from Mike Lindell directly in this frank conversation.

Although not well known today, Dorothy Kilgallen was a well-known celebrity reporter and one of the panelists stars of the hit game show What's My Line? she was an interesting mixture of intellectual, glamorous, and she exuded a down-home charm.
The world was shocked to learn that she was found dead in her bed on the morning of November 8th 1965. The coroner’s report said, “alcohol and barbiturates” and that the circumstances were “undetermined.”
What really happened, and why should you care?
My guest this week is former criminal defense attorney and author Mark Shaw. Over his 25+ books, two of them are about Dorothy’s death and is convinced she was murdered by, most likely, a probable combination of rogue government agents and mafia figures.

There are few topics that hit emotional buttons as vaccinations. The internet is awash with pro-vaccines vs anti-vaccines arguments. And if you add in the whole CCP Virus as a background, you have a perfect storm of controversy.
This week’s guest is Dr. Theresa Deisher, who holds a doctorate in Molecular and Cellular Physiology from Stanford University School of Medicine. She is the founder and lead scientist at Sound Choice Pharmaceutical Institute, and the CEO of AVM Biotechnology. Dr. Deisher holds more than 47 issued US/EU/Japan patents and four discoveries in clinical trials and has over 30 years of pharmaceutical leadership experience including Genentech, Repligen, ZymoGenetics, Immunex, and Amgen.

In this video, a follow up of another video on The Great Reset (see: https://youtu.be/yXWiumjOyYE ), I ask two simple questions:
1) What do the oligarchs have in store for us now?
2) Have you noticed how certain phrases suddenly come into vogue and everyone's using them seemingly overnight? I'm talking about "build back better," the latest word salad served up by the oligarchs for our consumption. And like "black lives matter," "pro-choice," and "hate has no home here," build back better has been designed to be immune to any objections.
I mean, do you want to build back worse? Do you want to build back at all? What's wrong with you? Its inciting incident came with: * the lockdown due to the largely non-lethal, largely preventable, largely treatable CCP virus that was allowed to make its way all around the world from Wuhan, thanks to the Communist Chinese party. * the grinding down of business owners and their families, and the largest spike in suicides ever recorded. * the covering up hundreds of millions of human faces so as to live in a smile-free Zombie World. The concept of “build back better” has a nice ring to it for people who aren’t really paying attention to what's going on in front of their faces. What is being “built back” is in fact NOT better but far worse than what has been destroyed by the bizarre overreaction to the CCP virus and the Great Reset being planned as we speak.
Crazy conspiracy theory, right?

In this episode, we are airing a public talk given on May 10, 1962 by former communist leader, Bella Dodd. The talk was given to a packed house in Omaha, NE, and it recounts her time in labor unions, education, and as an attorney to bring Soviet-style communism into America from her operations base in New York City. It is a master class in communist tactics.
Brought back to the Church in 1952 by Archbishop Sheen, an acknowledged expert on communist philosophy, Dodd spent her remaining decades crisscrossing the country telling her story of activist infiltration, covert ops as a communist agent, and ultimately of conversion to Christ and a defense of the American way of life.

Many people have heard the story of the former Communist Party leader Bella Dodd deployed “over 1000 communist agents” into American seminaries to infiltrate the Church. But if you read Bella Dodd’s autobiography, she makes no mention of it.
So who exactly was Bella Dodd and how do we know she did this?

The Great Reset is all the rage. Because we identify reset with a computer upgrade, it's sold to us as something good. If a reset is good a great reset must be great. Right?
The phrase comes from the founder and CEO of the World Economic Forum, (Schwab) Klaus Schwab. Mr. Schwab and his fellow oligarchs have been trying to gain some traction with this great reset saying for years without much traction.
In fact, in a short propaganda video, the World Economic Forum predicts a world where, “You’ll own nothing, and you’ll be happy” and that everyone will rent everything they need.
In this episode, I describe the Fourth Industrial Revolution and its inauguration of transhumanism, the literal fusion of artificial intelligence and the digital world with the human person.

Technology, that is, that is untethered by ethics. He says that while technology has brought many blessings to mankind, it has had hidden effects and purposes. Like the drive toward transhumanism, the fusing of computers and humanity. Literally.
Lukacs is a featured speaker at the Oct 30-31 virtual summit Truth Over Fear: Unmasking Covid-19. Don’t miss it!

By his own account, Dr. Steve Turley is by nature a pessimist. You might find that hard to believe given his downright exuberant YouTube videos, which he publishes not once but twice a day. The Delaware scholar, author, teacher, and classical guitarist communicates with an infectious sense of enthusiasm on topics most conservatives are down in the mouth about.
In this extended interview, “Dr. Steve” gets personal, and, with Chestertonian good cheer, does a deep dive into the inspiration for Turley Talks, and why he sees secular liberalism as in its dying phase worldwide. A fascinating Orthodox Christian raconteur and red pill dispenser!

It is no longer a secret that Black Lives Matter was founded by trained Marxists. It’s way worse than that.
It’s “inspired” by necromancy, otherwise known as witchcraft. One of the BLM foundresses, Patrice Cullors, bragged about talking to the souls of the dead to launch their Marxist movement.
Not Samantha from TVs Bewitched witchcraft. The real thing.
Abraham Hamilton II made the truth widely know. Abe is a popular radio host, author, attorney, and general counsel for the American Family Association. And as a serious Christian in America who happens to be black (or, as he says, “melanated”) he has unique insights into the underlying motives of certain movements, like Black Lives Matter, that purport to speak for all blacks.
Co-foundress of BLM, Patrice Cullors, has admitted that she and her fellow trained Marxists literally summon the spirits of the dead to help them achieve their goals. Can you say, recipe for total disaster? It does explain a lot.

The problem is their advice tends to be very weak, and very vague, spectacularly nonspecific…afraid to describe things as they really are...afraid to quote what the candidates have publicly said they will do if elected...and afraid to quote from the websites of the political party's platform.

We all know Karl Marx (1818—1883) taught devilish doctrines like communism, but is there any evidence he was possessed? Paul Kengor has amassed a substantial amount of historical and biographical evidence that this may have been the case.
In The Devil and Karl Marx, Kengor analyzes’ Marx’s own writings, his poetry, a demonic-style play, and examines the much-neglected unflattering (to say the least) behaviors and actions of the father of communism.
Kengor also mentions names of current Marxist influencers. An exceptionally detailed treatment of one of the main diseases our culture suffers from.

In honor of the Anniversary of Humanae Vitae, I created a FREE three-part series titled: How Can Birth Control Be Wrong?
This is Part Two of a free three-part video class on the reasons behind the Catholic Church's teaching against contraception. In this video, I explain the natural law reasoning behind the teaching. What is the natural law? (what rational beings must do to perfect their natures.) How easy is it to understand? (Yes!) Why does the Church rely on it if it's not something revealed by God in the Bible? (Because God does not need to reveal things in His Word that the human mind can grasp and obey.) Why do couples refer to contraception as "protection"? Against what? (An innocent baby.) Is this teaching ever going to change? (No—because it's true.)

Wall Street Journal contributor Abigail Shrier is not a science writer nor is she a particularly conservative figure. She sees things not through the left-right lens, but the true-false one.
In 2019, her essay “When Your Daughter Defies Biology” in the WSJ ignited a firestorm—of admiration, and opprobrium. This got her attention, and she kept digging, researching, and interviewing parents of trans kids (vast majority female), and the result is her new book Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Crazy Seducing Our Daughters (Regnery).

What is it with those movies (there are hundreds of them) that resonate with men? They can watch 'em over and over and they seem to get better with each viewing. In this video, I about seven movies that men love, why that is so, and why the world needs more of this kind of cinema. * Read the rest of the show notes and links here.

I want to mention a couple of pet peeves that you might share regarding the social media platform known as Twitter. First, you have to realize that Twitter is designed to maximize conflict and to make people extremely angry. There is no middle ground on Twitter
There are those who are passionately against X and those who are passionately in favor of X. And when you have a limit of 280 characters you cannot lay out an argument you can only explode with emotion.
You can love something intensely or hate something intensely. Twitter removes the possibility of actual conversation leaving only the most Primal impulses in the human person.
Twitter was designed to bypass the cerebral cortex and go straight for the hippocampus …the lizard brain. The Primal part that is hopped up on the drugs of sex, survival, food, and the need to appear like John Wayne while hiding behind a fake handle.
Fellow Catholics, you have to decide to get off the fence and become who You Are!

Whenever Big Tech elites censor someone, it gets my attention. The first thing I think is, "what important insight is being silenced?" Well, Stefan Molyneux has topics to broach and ideas to argue about. And the oligarchs at Big Tech don’t like it one bit. YouTube banned his account. Molyneux is the founder and host of Freedomain.com, the largest podcast and forum on philosophy in the world.

A debate now rages over whether the American Proposition will be defeated by its own DNA flaws from the get-go or will recover its foundational principles, which have been roundly ignored and unconsulted.
Let’s just say historian and social critic Robert R. Reilly, author of America on Trial: A Defense of the Founding, does not hold to the former. Here he delves deeply into the Founder’s official documents, the worldview they held, and the ideas they drew upon to frame the turbulent beginnings of the country.

You could say former Democrat (and low information Catholic) Jesse Romero got mugged by reality. The evangelist, author, and podcast host is a retired LA County Deputy Sheriff and kickboxing champion who grew up on the means streets of San Fernando, CA. He doesn’t pull his famous punches in this conversation about why he believes Donald J. Trump is the ONLY choice for Republicans, Democrats, and Independents.

This rounds out a two-part series on the profound implications and global scope of Jones’ 800+ page Logos Rising: The History of Ultimate Reality. In the first episode, we covered from creation up to the Incarnation of the Logos Himself, Jesus Christ.
In Part Two, we hit the high spots from the early Church and St. Paul, up to the “death and burial’ of Thomism (the study and application of St. Thomas Aquinas to philosophical errors and other problems) in America at Notre Dame University.

The violence that we are seeing now in most major American cities did not arise in a vacuum. And it was not caused by the death of George Floyd. And the hysteria over racism is a red herring that’s meant to distract you from what's really going on. In this video, I dig into the partnership between the Left in academia, and their fellow travelers in the media. If you add in actual prejudice against blacks, and the sense of anger and despair over the CCP virus lockdown, you have a recipe for high-level clashes.

Where did everything begin? Language? Civilization? God’s people? The Incarnation? How about the discovery of time, and the rise of Islam, and science?
All these topics and more are treated by Dr. E. Michael Jones, author editor of Culture Wars magazine, in his new (very readable if dense) tome Logos Rising: The History of Ultimate Reality. There so many elements to this important book that I needed to break it into two episodes. Not everyone is going to agree with 100% of his thesis, a maxim that applies to 100% of my guest. As ever, take what you find true and helpful and leave the rest.

Most people are familiar with the metaphor of the pills from the 1999 movie “The Matrix.”
In the movie, the hero Neo, played by Keanu Reeves can either take the red or the blue pill. Taking the latter mean he stays ignorant of the massive computer simulation around him and humanity. Taking the former means he has his eyes open to the truth, and all it implies.
In this video, I set the record straight about some confusion that has set in about the meaning of these pills. I argue there are seven pills throughout life, not two. 🔴 Read the rest at https://www.patrickcoffin.media/videos

Men tend to be good at doing things together, in the sense of separately together like watching a sports game or fishing, hunting, poker, billiards, etc. Men tend not to be good at spending time communicating face to face with each other.
The idea of male friendship has undergone a shift for the worse in the wake of the turbulent, and failed, sexual revolution. It’s not just relationships between men and women that have suffered; relations between men have also suffered. Men, Christian or otherwise, don’t want to “get too close” out of fear that it seems either gay or something only women do. But real friendship is built on virtue, and the root of virtue is the Latin vir, or male adult. What are men afraid of? Adam Minehan and David Niles, creators and hosts of The Catholic Man Show podcast, are lifelong friends and talk about the lost art of manly closeness.

St. Pope Pius X called Modernism “the synthesis of all heresies” and strongly condemned it in his 1907 Encyclical Pascendi. You’ve heard Modernist ideas before: Jesus is extremely important and special, but not the unique Savior; truth is not immutable; you don’t need the Church, only the Holy Spirit working in your conscience; the Bible is inspired and inerrant only when it comes to spiritual truths and lessons. You get the idea.

In this video, I review the origins of the term "political correctness" and how the early Communists used it as a devil term to create a consensus in favor of the godless Revolution of 1917.
In other words, it was tool by the extreme Left to keep people in line, and to “encourage” them to tow the party line—the Communist Party line.
So politically incorrect speech came to be synonymous with a speech that deviated from the Party ideology, that that made the speaker known as a whistleblower, a troublemaker.
In other words, a counterrevolutionary.

Most people flee from labels like “dirty trickster,” “buffoon,” and “prince of darkness. Presidential advisor and author Roger Stone revels in it. Splashes around in it so as to defuse its sting. Most of what you think you know about him is written by his enemies.
As this interview was conducted, Stone was facing a 40-month jail term for seven counts handed down by a twice-Obama appointed judge and a hopelessly biased jury. Time will tell whether he gets a presidential pardon.

Phil Lawler has the long view of things. A professional journalist and editor for over 30 years, he has a broad sense of perspective. The CCP virus lockdown has introduced a serious threat to Catholic life insofar as the Council of Trent defined that the Sacraments are necessary for salvation, and that canon law (c 213 and elsewhere).
While Baptists ministers are getting arrested and fined (and refusing to pay), and they don’t have the Real Presence and no eucharistic Lord to adore, how come the bishops as a whole seem adamant in backing the secular refusal to see religious services as essential? Why are creative workarounds—which respect medical distancing protocols—of no apparent interest to our bishops?

A war against the United States and the West has been raging under our noses for decades. This war is by definition covert, and has many fronts: military, technological, political, and social.
The problem is so few people know it is being waged. Until now. Retired Air Force Brigadier General Robert Spalding, a China expert and former Defense Attache to China in Bejing, China, has written a jaw-dropping book that every American should read. It's called Stealth War: How China Took Over While America's Elites Slept.

On any bell curve, you are going to find the great mushy middle, with extreme ends of the spectrum on either side. In the case of the culture war, the far left side is dominated by radicals who are passionately committed to overturning the Christian order, imitating the Communist agenda in destroying marriage and family, and generally leading what Pope Benedict XVI called the “dictatorship of relativism.”

Anyone who but raises the question of God punishing the world today for sins runs the risk of mockery and derision. The critics reply that “That was the vengeful God of the Old Testament. Jesus was much nicer.” And while it can be very difficult to prove a cause-effect relationship in particular cases, we do know three things.
First, God has a history of sending plagues and other punishments on mankind, as with the Noah and the flood, the plagues upon Egypt, the leprosy of Miriam, the messages of Akita and Fatima—they all validate the truth that God can and does occasionally send widespread punishments upon mankind.
Second, idolatry is a violation of the First Commandment and is particularly egregious when authorized by a pope.
Third, the public worship of the occultic idol Pachamama in the Vatican, including its enshrinement before the main altar of St. Peter’s Church, was such an idolatry.
Author John Gravino connects a number of key dots, between heretical Church documents and sexual sin, and between the Pachamama worship and the outbreak of COVID-19.

The silly Sixties’ song “The Age of Aquarius” was wrong. It’s the Age of St. Joseph. Today more than ever does the universal Church need the example and intercessor of the foster father of Jesus Christ. Men, women, and children need the manly exemplar of human fatherhood, and the head of the Holy Family fits the bill in spades.
In the last 150 years, there has been more teaching, insights and conclusions about the husband of the Blessed Virgin Mary than in the previous 1900 years. Father Donald Calloway, MIC, has put everything you need to know about the role of St. Joseph in salvation history. You will be astonished, as I was, of how much you don’t know about the second greatest saint.

Catholics of the Eastern persuasion take fasting seriously. It looms large in their approach to penitential Seasons in the Church’s calendar. Fr. Hezekias Carnazzo (formerly Deacon Sabatino) founded the Institute of Catholic Culture, and has since served as its Executive Director. He also serves as the Director of the Office of Catechesis and Evangelization for the Melkite Greek Catholic Eparchy of Newton. And is the father of seven.
He is convinced that the sense of apathy and misunderstanding toward the great benefits of fasting has got to change. Fasting not only has health benefits but it is badly needed today for Christians who desire to grow and self-mastery and love of Christ. Listen in!

Learn more here: www.coffinnation.com ********** I saw Jean Vanier speak at two different conferences. The first was in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, in the mid-80s; the second on a farm retreat north of Toronto in the early 90s. It was at the latter where I met and spoke with him briefly. I had read a couple of his early books.
If you are Canadian and Catholic, Jean Vanier is a household name to you.
A dozen schools are named for him across the country, and he won dozens of accolades and honorary degrees—all manner of worldly admiration.
Under the inspiration of a Dominican priest named Father Thomas Philippe, Jean Vanier as the founding myth goes, visited two mentally handicapped man and decided to have them come live with him and that was the beginning of L'Arche, now a worldwide Federation of group homes for the mentally handicapped
When he walked into a room or strode casually up to a lectern before a large crowd, his beautiful face always seem to be beaming.
His tall frame radiated a palpably peaceful aura, which has been compared to being in the presence of St. Mother Teresa of Calcutta, who was a friend of his.
We now know that Jean Vanier was also a serial sexual predator.
After all the heartache and anger and disillusionment felt by millions of Catholics since the long Lent of 2002, now JEAN VANIER? You kidding me?
The truth is, he seems to have learned is diabolical strategies for taking full advantage of women from none other than Father Thomas Philippe, his mentor in spiritual father, a despicable and manipulative fraud.
In this video, Patrick asks the questions that have not been answered about this tragic, shocking fall of a man once hailed as a living saint.
* The Holy Office punished Thomas Philippe in 1956 with severe restrictions and sanctions, which means his despicable behavior was known by the Vatican. Why was this not flagged decades earlier?
-
We know of 14 women who say they were abused by Philippe long after his formal punishment for doing the same thing in the early 50s. How many more lives were badly damaged because Vanier gave him cover—and access to a steady flow of vulnerable women?
-
Pope Francis publicly mentioned that he had talked to Vanier the week before he died in May 2019, and went out of his way to praise his life work. As of this moment, the Pope has not said a word, either about the victims nor the scandal itself. Why not?
- Finally, how could a man who lived a very public life as a model of morality and goodness have so successfully segmented and hid this level of evil?
In addition to praying for his victims, and for his soul, I also pray for the community he started.
The prophetic witness of L'Arche is even more urgently needed today than it was in 1964.

In mid-February, 2020, Father John Hollowell was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Probably one of the least desirable things to hear. The small-town Indiana pastor (of two busy parishes) has not only taken it in stride, as far as that’s possible, he says it was an answer to a prayer he made in 2018 during the maddening summer of shame with the news of McCarrick and related sins and crimes emerged—again.

If Christmas is the season to be jolly, Lent is the season to be needlessly scrupulous and neurotic, and to argue online about things that have VERY little to do with imitating Jesus, amiright?

If you'd like to bring me to your conference or local church — at no expense to the parish— learn more here. ********** One of the great providential blessings of living as a Catholic under the confused and confusing papacy of Pope Francis, is that there's a new hunger out there to learn the truth about the Catholic faith.
Not the liberal agenda version, not the “Jesuit tradition” version, not the LA Religious Ed Congress version, not the Feeneyite or the extremist SSPX version, and not the clap-happy, self-help therapeutic moral deism version.
I mean Catholicism, I mean the deposit of faith, what Jude 1:3 calls “the faith once delivered to the saints.”
Could you summarize the teaching of Vatican I, or the Council of Trent in a few sentences?
Do you know what was defined at the Council of Ephesus, or the First Council of Nicea?
It's like the entire Catholic Church, at almost all levels, has a case of collective amnesia when it comes to grasping what went on between the resurrection and 1962.
Then you need to dig into the deposit of faith.

He speaks German, Russian, Portuguese, Spanish, English, French and Italian, and he reads Latin and Ancient Greek. His parents were exiled in Ural Mountains gulag under Stalin where they helped the underground Church. He is one of the Catholic Church’s most outspoken prelates, a supporter of the Viganò letters and critic of the Amoris Laetitia ambiguities, who speaks with refreshing frankness about Church corruption and the infiltration of evils in her ranks.
He is Bishop Athanasius Schneider, author (with interviewer Diane Montagna) of Christus Vincit: Christ’s Triumph Over the Darkness of the Age. And His Excellency is this week’s guest.

Dan Burke lives life literally on the edge of life. The author and former COO of EWTN News (and founder-director of the Avila Institute for Spiritual Formation) has suffered many life-threatening maladies resulting in hospital trips, surgeries, and sundry set-backs.
He teaches the art and science of spiritual direction and appreciation of the Catholic mystical tradition for ordinary Catholics, including seminarians and priests. In a sense, Burke is on a mission to help people understand that the spiritual battle is real, and rages daily in and around us. How equipped are you for this battle?

Here is my review for the new Sam Mendes World War 1 drama, 1917.
The movie showcases a wise blend of newcomers and veterans. Director Sam Mendes has decades of experience in the theater and went on to direct movies like American Beauty, Skyfall, and Road to Perdition
I just read that he directed Dame Judi Dench on the stage in England at the age of 24.
The Director of Photography is Academy Award winner, Roger Deakins, whose credits include Kundun, The Shawshank Redemption, Oh Brother Where Art Thou, and the underrated movie “The Assassination of Jesse James By the Coward Robert Ford” based on a book by Deacon Ron Hanson.
1917 blends together all that experience to deliver a quiet wallop. While the subject matter is harrowing and mostly terrifying, one has to use the word beautiful to describe the visuals throughout.
More on that in a moment.
Two very well-known actors have small but critical roles as military commanders, Benedict Cumberbatch—who has one of the most magnificent speaking voices in the world—and Colin Firth.
Both of these great actors seem born to play characters from the past.
On the other hand, Mendes’ co-writer is a relative newcomer Krysty Wilson-Cairns, who has written a few short films and a TV series. There’s nothing green showing here, though. The dialogue is pithy and rings true to the context and the period.
Almost unknowns in the two lead roles:
Dean-Charles Chapman as Lance Corporal Blake and George MacKay as Lance Corporal Schofield.
These are fine young actors who are mostly unknown to American audiences. and this is a good thing because, from the opening scene, they are a blank slate.
The fact that both characters are a bit on the bland side is also a plus because they become “everyman” making it easier to vicariously follow their mission behind enemy lines and alert a British general to halt an invasion that intelligence has discovered is a German trap.
The emotional stakes have to do with the fact that Lance Corporal Blake's brother is set to be unleashed into this trap along with 1600 other British soldiers.
And this is where 1917 draws an easy comparison with “Saving Private Ryan.”
The brutal depiction of what was called The War to End All Wars coupled with the emotional impact of saving a brother makes for a very watchable movie.
But 1917 in its basic story components it's much more similar to Gallipoli, the 1981 World War One drama that proved to the world that Mel Gibson could you more as an actor than motorbike to the desert a black leather outfit and bad hair.
Gallipoli and 1917 share the same trope of gung ho soldiers maybe or maybe not being stopped before going over the top into enemy fire. No spoiler alerts, so I’ll stop right there on that.
1917 opens and closes with bookend images that show how many physical and emotional miles the characters have undergone. Again, simple and unadorned.
Everyone's talking about the single continuous shot which of course is not literally true, as was the case with the Oscar-winning Birdman, directed by Alejandro Gonzalez Innaritu.
It WAS the case with the 2002 movie Russian Ark, directed by Alexander Sokurov, and LITERALLY a 90-minute continuous steadicam shot.
With 1917, Mendes and Deakins have pulled off a two-hour magic trick by seamlessly blending the cuts along the way to give the uncanny appearance of one single camera perspective, mostly handheld and mostly traveling backward which adds to the sense of disorientation.
If you're wondering where they spent the estimated 100 million dollar budget, this is it. cameras mounted on dollies, on cranes, on steady-cam operators, and even on motorcycles, all to take the viewer on a dangerous and unpredictable adventure into hell.
Unlike with most war stories that introduce the characters’ backstories, 1917 jumps right into the mission, we don't know who these men are, we're not sure where they came from, we're only half sure of where they're going, And we certainly don't know if they'll live through it.
1917 does not have the same explicit blood and guts visuals of a “Saving Private Ryan.” The obstacles met and the dangers faced by the two leads is more Hitchcock than Spielberg.
The non-stop action includes a few stops for breathers, one of which is a beautiful scene involving a young French woman and a baby in the middle of a German-controlled village.
I'll mention one more. Special mention here goes to a haunting rendition of a 19th-century gospel ballad called “Wayfaring Stranger,” which has been covered by Johnny Cash, Emmylou Harris, Ed Sheeran, and Jack White.
In 1917, we are treated to an angelic acapella version by actor Jos Slovick, who, standing in the middle of the clearing in the forest in front of absolutely exhausted sitting men—many of them teenagers—sings the song like a liturgical hymn.
It's one of those memorable movie moments that provides a consoling elixir for both the characters and the audience. For a few moments, a war-torn forest becomes a cathedral.
It reminded me of the montage scene with Jose Feliciano haunting version of “California Dreamin’” smack in the middle of Quentin Tarantino's Masterpiece black comedy, “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.”
All this to say that 1917 is going to clean up at Oscar time.
Finally, an Academy Award win that makes sense!

His official title was Honorary Chaplain to the Queen (QHC), kind of a big deal for any Anglican clergyman. Then Rt. Rev Gavin Ashenden held the position from 2008 until 2017, when he left following, inter alia, a public liturgical reading in a Glasgow cathedral from the Quran that denied the divinity of Christ.
A good Protestant, he protested. And then he parted ways with the established church.

I am updating something I said 12 months ago, this time focusing on how to crush 2020.
If you want to make the absolute most out of the coming year, here are my top 10 tactics for total tenacity and triumph…..And I apologize for the terrible alliteration.
In no particular order:
-
Don't make a New Year's resolution. Make a plan.
-
As Nir Eyal says in his fine book “Indistractable,” master your internal triggers. Listen to them. My interview with him: https://www.patrickcoffin.media/how-to-distract-proof-your-brain/
-
Speaking of writing things down, well everyone gets excited about to-do list, write a not-to-do list.
-
Cry more. The shortest verse in the Bible is John 11:35 and describes what Jesus did when he learned that his friend Lazarus had died. “Jesus wept.”
-
Pick up your smartphone and delete your social media apps. Delete them. I dare you.
-
Small is huge. A lot of us get grandiose ideas about how this year's going to be different/way better/more powerful etc than last year, and we forget that small wins are the key to success.
-
Don't lie to yourself about your willpower. None of us have strong willpower. You are weak, and I am weak, and we both need constant, deliberate reliance on the grace of God to do anything well.
8. Get thee to a Latin Mass. Go for the sumptuous silence, the reverent atmosphere, the sight of young large families, the smells and bells, the fellow Catholics actually singing, and the aerobic exercise afforded by sitting, standing, and kneeling. -
Don't argue about the Faith. Even if you win the argument, as Bishop Sheen said, you can lose the soul. I know this sounds counterintuitive, but... 10.

Despite teaching at prestigious universities, René Girard (1923—2015) was an outsider to the world of academe. The French philosopher and social critic began teaching literature because he needed a job. This venture set up his discovery of just how similar the various novels and classics were that he was lecturing on. He realized over time that, primarily, people want what other people want, a dynamic he called mimetic desire.

Christmas is a season, so, Merry Christmas!
In this video, I dive into some word origins and Bible verses that have to do with the brevity of life. Natura is the Latin root for nativity and nature and natural — and it has to do with things coming into being.
We often treat life like a giant game of dodgeball and we hear about someone dying we think “Oh, that’s too bad they got hit with the ball” as if we’re never going to get hit. We’ll be the last man standing forever.
The word of God teaches us otherwise. you and I will spend a brain-fracturing long amount of time in eternity in the life to come, whether in heaven or in hell, compared to the short decades we spend here in this life.
With each 52-week unit of time known as one year that we experience the subsequent 52-week units of time seem to go by faster with each passing year.
Isn’t that true?
Didn’t Christmas seem to come around every 10 years or so when you were a little kid?
So here are seven Bible verses on the brevity of life:
1. Psalms 90:10
2. Psalms 144:4
3. Job 9:25-26
4. 1 Chronicles 29:15
5. Luke 12:20
6. James 4:14
7. Hebrews 2: 14-15
The death and resurrection of Jesus Christ have changed death from a black pit into a well-lit door.
The great playwright and Catholic convert Tennessee Williams wrote something fascinating and very practical about the brevity of life. I’ll close with this:
“In the time of your life–live!” That time is short and it doesn’t return again. It is slipping away while I write this and while you read it, the monosyllable of the clock is Loss, loss, loss, unless you devote your heart to its opposition.”

This episode debuted exactly two years ago, and I could think of no better show this year to honor my all-time favorite movie, Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life (1947) through the eyes of two women with close ties to its creation.
If Mr. Capra didn’t write it, why do I call it “Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life? It’s because that’s how the movie was marketed, which helps explain why the film got only a so-so reception when it was first released. Most of Mr. Capra’s pre-World War II movies were so sweet-hearted that they later earned the moniker “Capracorn,” not meant as a compliment.
It’s a Wonderful Life is one of the most critically acclaimed films ever made. Nominated for five Academy Awards including Best Picture, recognized by the American Film Institute as one of the 100 best American films ever made, and placed number 11 on its initial 1998 greatest movie list, it also ranked number one on its list of the most inspirational American films of all time.
Think about that. In light of the fact that hundreds of thousands of movies have been made, this is a jaw-dropping achievement.
By the end of the Second World War, though, the mood of the movie-going public had shifted, as I wrote about the making of the movie in National Review a few years ago HERE.
The next day after it was published, an appreciative email from a woman named Mary Owen arrived in my inbox. Turns out, Mary is the daughter of actress Donna Reed, who played Mary Bailey, the wife of James Stewart’s George Bailey.
I thanked her for the lovely email and we had a few back-and-forths. After my podcast was up on two feet and spreading around the world (110 countries and counting), I thought it would be fun to have her on the show to talk about her mother’s role in this now-international favorite Christmas movie and to learn some back story to her mother’s career and her commitment to writing back to the G.I’s who wrote to her from the trenches and the gun turrets of World War II.
The interview segues nicely into the next one, a rich conversation with actress Karolyn Grimes who played Zuzu, one of the four Bailey kids. Remember Zuzu’s petals? This was a real treat for me who loves the movie so well, and I know it will be for you as well.
I learned, among other things, how much Mrs. Grimes suffered as a teen when her mother died and then the next year her father was killed and she became a ward of the state—then “rescued” by an aunt and uncle in Missouri, which was an unhappy home situation. Karolyn also played Debbie, the daughter of David Niven and Loretta Young in another Christmas favorite, The Bishop’s Wife.
For those of us who can’t gobble up enough trivia and true stories about It’s a Wonderful Life, Mrs. Grimes is a treasure trove of first-hand memories and insights!

In this Christmas video, I cite a writer writing about Christmas.
Without Googling, can you guess who wrote it?
The mystery writer starts according to John’s Gospel:
“And the Word was made flesh, and came to dwell among us; and we had sight of His glory, glory such as belongs to the Father’s only-begotten Son, full of grace and truth.” – John 1:14
I’ll give you a major hint: the writer is a Christian.

In this video, I summarize the story so far of the sudden postponement of the Bishop Fulton Sheen beatification, which had been slated for December 21, 2019.
I also provide some important context for the lead up to the "Sheen Cause Pause," and give you the lowdown on WHY it was halted, as well as give a short introduction to the great man himself.
In his day Bishop Sheen was a household name.
Every aspect of his very public life has undergone extraordinary scrutiny already. The miraculous raising of the dead of young James Fulton Engstrom is a certified bona fide miracle (see my interview with his mother Bonnie in the link below), and Pope Francis himself authorized Bishop Sheen as worthy of beatification.
But...the Diocese of Rochester confirmed last Thursday that it had requested a delay of the beatification of Archbishop Fulton Sheen, which had been scheduled for Dec. 21 until it was postponed indefinitely earlier this week.
The Diocese of Peoria says the Rochester Diocese has left out key facts as to WHY.
This is what this video addresses.
The bottomline is, Fulton J Sheen is clean. The screeching halt to his Cause, was orchestrated by Bishop Salvatore Matano of Rochester (Rome sources say he was abetted by Cardinals Cupich of Chicago and Dolan of New York—no surprise there). It's a sham.
Does Cardinal Dolan's silence in particular have something, maybe, possibly something to do with the fact that he lost in four different legal Appeals in a row—costing the faithful of New York hundreds of thousands of dollars for high-priced attorneys to keep Bishop Sheen’s body in Saint Pat’s Cathedral?
Will no US bishops stand up in defense of their brother bishop and sainthood candidate?
In the end, Catholics should be glad the Cause was halted. I explain why in this video.
Venerable Fulton J Sheen, Ora Pro Nobis.

Is there a more urgent, vital question than what happens to you after you die? Despite misunderstandings about what purgatory or limbo are, the Catholic Church, following Scripture and Tradition, teaches with highest authority that there are only two eternal destinies: heaven and hell.
If you read the Gospels and pay attention to what Jesus says about hell, you’ll be surprised how often and how seriously He warns us about it. But are these merely “warnings”? Is Jesus bluffing to teach a lesson? Could hell, in fact, be empty?

Suicide is a pandemic today. Most people are inclined to disbelieve how bad the problem is. Father Chris Alar, MIC, can relate. He didn’t give suicide too much thought.
Until his beloved grandmother killed herself at home.
That traumatic loss, after many years of confusion and grief, led by God’s providence, to his call to the priesthood. The author and preacher wrote a kind of handbook for friends and loved ones of those who have taken their own lives. It’s titled After Suicide: There’s Hope for Them and For You.

The U.S. Bishops met this past week in Baltimore and it was two days of fairly procedural discussions and long speeches and talk of preparing documents that very few people outside that that ballroom will read.
But a few things struck me watching the footage of the proceedings and from the transcript of what was said.
The first thing I noticed was how many of the interventions expressed viewpoints that are not in fact the teachings of the Catholic Church.
To take one example, the bishop of Venice Florida, Bishop Frank Dewane—apparently speaking to previous USCCB statements—supported the idea that civilians should have virtually no access to handguns.
Erm, what?
The Second Amendment should go?
The question of violence in our society is an important one but taking guns away from EVERYONE is worse than putting a Band-Aid on a broken leg, because it ignores the root problems:
…the breakdown of the family, the fallout of failed sexual revolution, the skyrocketing divorce rate, the epidemic of depression and suicide.
…the exodus out of the Church and away from Jesus Christ.
…the secularist media machine hell-bent on selling fear, relativism, and despair.
But the real clash of happened on the second day between Bishop Robert McElroy of San Diego and Archbishop Charles Chaput of Philadelphia.
Bishop McElroy does not like the idea of non-negotiables for Catholic voters, Including please sing abortion and euthanasia as more important than the urgent them things like the environment and care for the poor. Full stop.
In his address to the Bishops, the Bishop of San Diego expressed displeasure with the phrase “preeminent concern given to the weakest members of society,” a reference to the killing of innocent unborn human beings through abortion.
This line appears in a 2015 USCCB document that very few people read called “Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship.” The Bishop’s at this week’s meeting are set to publish another letter that contained the line, “the threat of abortion remains our preeminent priority because it directly attacks life itself.”
Well, Bishop McElroy objected to the line as being “at least discordant” with the pope’s teachings.
He didn’t say why this is, since Pope Francis has referred to abortionists as “hitmen.”
Among other things, McElroy said:
“It is not Catholic that abortion is the preeminent issue that we face as a world in Catholic social teaching. It is not. For us to say that, particularly when we omit the pope’s articulation of this question, I think is a grave disservice of our people…so either we shouldn’t have “preeminent” in there, or we should have the pope’s full paragraph where he lays out his vision of this same question, delicately balancing all of it in the words he does,”
Bishop Joseph Strickland of Tyler Texas said that he thought preeminent should stay.
Next up was Archbishop Chaput wasn’t having any of the reasoning proffered by is brother Bishop McElroy.
Archbishop Chaput replied:
“I am against anyone stating that our saying [abortion] is ‘preeminent’ is contrary to the teaching of the pope. Because that isn’t true. It sets an artificial battle between the bishops’ conference of the United States and the Holy Father which isn’t true.
So I don’t like the argument Bishop McElroy used. It isn’t true.
In an unusual break with protocol, the bishop’s broke into applause.
This clash right here is a microcosm of the civil war going on right now inside the Catholic Church between those who go along with the word salad and the weaponized ambiguities of Pope Francis, and those who want continuity with the previous 265 popes and sacred Tradition especially in the area of moral theology.
First, is this disagreement imaginable under John Paul II or really any previous Pope?
Second, many people are beginning to ask why the bishops have to meet in lavish hotels in big cities? Wouldn’t any of the unused or abandoned retreat houses or monasteries across the country provide a more fitting setting?
Third, then Cardinal Ratzinger has explained that National Bishops conferences do not have magisterial authority and their pronouncements per se—especially in matters political or prudential—are not binding on the faithful.
Not including retirees, there are 433 Bishops in the United States. The airfare alone comes to over $130,000 for this 48 hour event, not including the army of staffers, not including hotel, Ubers, meals ,and other costs.
The annual budget of the USCCB is 180 million dollars, and not all of it is funded by donations. For the Catholic Relief Services alone, federal monies accounted for 64.70 percent of its total annual budget.
It’s getting harder to know where the Church ends and where the State begins.
Somehow the Church in America managed to preach the gospel, celebrate the sacraments, and teach the Faith before then for over 300 years, before the US Conference of Catholic Bishops began in 1966.
All things considered, with six adults leaving the Catholic Church for every convert who joins, maybe it’s time to streamline and get back to basics, and seriously consider putting the USCCB out of its misery.

As the Irish used to put it, “it’s the Mass that matters.” The holy sacrifice of the Mass is the “source and summit of the Christian life” according to Vatican II. In the short years following the Council, the reformation of the Mass, replacing the pre-1962 Missal with the Mass of Paul VI (aka the Novus Ordo Missae), has unfortunately led to what amounts to a two-track Church.
The 2007 motu proprio Summorum Pontificum by Pope Benedict XVI lifted the need for episcopal permission to celebrate the Extraordinary Form (the Traditional Latin Mass) so any priest could celebrate it. This in turn led to a resurgent interest in the Mass that nurtured saints and sinners alike for over 500 years.
Archbishop Alexander Sample of Portland, OR, taught himself how to say the Latin Mass, and has nuggets of wisdom as to why the Church benefits from its celebration and the sense of balance needed to avoid extremist attitudes. He’s also an expert in sacred music, which is a much-overlooked element of the Divine Liturgy.
Perhaps because of movies like The Exorcist and TV shows like Ghost Hunters, one wonders if more people believe in demons than in angels.
Demonologist Adam Blai has devoted his life to training exorcist priests and lecturing on the different levels of demonic activity: temptation, oppression, infestation, and (the much rarer) possession. His sometimes harrowing experiences are found in his book, Hauntings, Possessions, and Exorcisms, which is part autobiography and part field manual.
The devil and his angels are real, but they are on a strong leash held by Jesus Christ. We need the grace of Christ to ask for more virtue, and greater faith, so we can live daily in victory over our common enemy.

Were you raised on Dr. Seuss? P.D. Eastman? The Hardy Boys? Maybe Anne of Green Gables? If the answer is yes to this genre and quality, then this interview will shock you. Author and educator Debbie DeGroff has put together a painfully brilliant collection of evidence showing the drip-by-drip degradation of books aimed at high schoolers, and younger.

Does the practice of psychiatry bring answers to suffering people or just more questions? How scientific is what we call psychiatry (as opposed to psychology), and how can it be integrated into the Christian faith? Dr. Aaron Kheriaty, MD has written about and pondered these questions deeply as a professor of psychiatry at the University of California Irvine and in private practice. This exchange of ideas and historical perspectives sheds a lot of light on questions Catholics and other Christians have about the world of psychiatry

When people in an otherwise civilized society want to die or want to kill other people, they must first come up with legit sounding euphemisms. “Death with dignity.” “Medical aid in dying.” “Clump of cells.” “Products of conception.” Same with racial hatred. First dehumanize, then act.
Or, first euphemize, then euthanize.
There has been one euthanasia or trans surgery story after another in the last few weeks. I found the right man in Wesley J. Smith to talk about them. He is a lawyer and award winning author of 13 books (see some gems below), and a senior fellow at the Discovery Institute’s Center on Human Exceptionalism. Smith is also a consultant to the Patients Rights Council.

Archbishop Julian Porteous is the Ordinary of Hobart, Tasmania, and an astute observer of Australian culture, particularly how fast it has veered toward militant secularism. The latest example is the law passed September, 2019, that provides jail time for priests who will not disclose what is confessed in the Sacrament of Reconciliation (aka Penance, or Confession) by, say, an abuser of minors.
This is an outrageous and unprecedented intrusion into the running of the Catholic Church in what is otherwise known as a free country. The rights of the Church are violated, and the challenge becomes down to the great difficulty in explaining why the Seal of Confession is substantially different from a relationship like attorney-client privilege.
Think this could only happen in secularist Australia? Think again. Secularist America is next: California and Louisiana legislatures have already tried the same stunt.

In June 1981, six Croatian teens (well, one was 10) went up Podbrdo Hill near the village of Medjugorje in then rural Yugoslavia. When they came down, they said they had seen “the Gospa” (Croatian for Lady). The local bishop, Pavao Žanić, was initially open to their claims but...after he interviewed them, and learned the full story, he knew it was a complete hoax.
If you do an internet search for “Medjugorje” you will find that the pro-apparition websites, books, DVDs, and prayer groups, positively swamp any critical sources. Yet the official judgment of the Catholic Church is clear: Medjugorje is rejected (officially, non constat de supernaturalitate). And yet Church leadership all the way up to Pope Francis treats the decades-sprawling phenomenon with a combination of kid gloves playing hot potato, to mix a metaphor.
The six seers have parlayed their so-called apparitions into consistently high sources of income, and the pilgrimage industry still rakes in millions each year off of naive, usually low information Catholics seeking solace or answers at the place.
Dr. E. Michael Jones, editor of Culture Wars magazine, wrote the first full length treatment of Medjugorje in 1988, and a book length account in 2010, which is why I invited him to give us an overview of the sprawling saga from the beginning. I do so with the intention of alerting my fellow Catholics who may be unaware (most are) of the truth about the Church’s discernment of this oddly toxic phenomenon.

Many people, especially Catholics, are vexed and confused about how the once admirable Catholic Church suddenly became identified with pedophilia, leadership corruption, duplicity, and worldly ideals having little to do with the gospel.
Author John Gravino has outlined two forces—one intellectual, one moral—working in tandem (although not always intentionally as allies) to create the present crisis. So the John Jay Report found that 81% of sexual abuse victims were teen boys (not “children”). But which moral theologians taught these predators in Roman collars?
And what about humanistic psychology? Ever hear of Carl Rogers and William Coulson—or Richard McCormick, SJ, or Andre Guindon, or Charles Curran? If the answer is no, this interviewis the place to start understanding how the bleep we got here as a Church that claims to have been founded and sustained by Jesus Christ.

If Joseph Pearce had a superhero alter ego, it would be...Bookman! I know of very few other scholars more qualified to recommend the great books we all ought to read before we go to The Great Printer.

How did the culture get so chaotic so quickly? Identity politics taints everything it touches; sexual minorities clamor for rights that didn’t exist five years ago; violence has replaced reason in public discourse.
How did we get here?
This is the gargantuan problem tackled by scholar and social critic Mary Eberstadt in her latest book, Primal Screams: How the Sexual Revolution Created Identity Politics. In light of the level of rage that has taken over public conversations, on and off line, how can we get traction with ideologues on the Left? Eberstadt says we must begin by listening and understanding.

It’s a classic David vs Goliath set up. Planned Parenthood veteran director lives in America illegally discovers serious moral and medical problems going on at the clinic she runs. Decides to blow the whistle. Planned Parenthood brass go after her immediately by firing her, poison the well of her reputation, plant narcotics in her desk, and suddenly care about her residence status.
That’s when Mayra decided to punch back twice as hard. She sued the largest provider of abortions in the world for wrongful dismissal, against the odds, and faced down witnesses with their grim-faced attorneys.
And won.

Very few journalists who are practicing Catholics are willing to honestly tackle the corruption in the Church by naming names, digging until the truth is unearthed, confronting bad guys, making antagonists squirm.
This is what George Neumayr does, chiefly as a correspondent for The American Spectator, but elsewhere as a freelancer. He has gone after the DC Swamp (Catholic Edition) for some years now, telling the true, often horrifying, story of malfeasance and other forms of corruption (sexual and financial) among priests and prelates in what he describes as the epicenter of the priestly abuse scandal that first broke nationally in Boston 2002, with ongoing tremors to this day.
Neumayr is doing what the official Catholic establishment media won’t do. His work is a testament to the power one man can have when writing the truth.

I don’t know what it is about courageous people who stand up for the truth of things come what may—including being banned, censored and lied about—but I’m drawn to them.
Gemma O’Doherty is one of them.
The multi-awarded Irish journalist and filmmaker, and foundress of Anti-Corruption Ireland, has made a career going after said corruption in the Garda (national police force), the Government, and the intertwining among these institutions and the Church, or in her words, “the cosy cartel that exists between the press, power, and the police in this country.”
To this day, she has never run out of material.
Given the Golden Boot Award from The Irish Independent, Ireland’s largest daily newspaper (owned by Clinton crony billionaire Denis O'Brien), Gemma took to YouTube, with the same unPC tenacity that characterized her style.
And then parent company Google took both her channels down for violations of—wait for it—corporate “hate speech” rules. This can happen when you a) are a practicing Catholic, b) won’t be boxed into a single “conservative” box; and c) have a thing or two to say about uncontrolled immigration.

There has always been the temptation in Christian history to conflate the humanitarian impulse with the kingdom of heaven. Today, this conflation has taken on various and sundry dangerous forms: liberation theology, globalism and the erasure of nation states, philanthropy for purely human motives, and the like.
Are we to be salt of the earth and to love our enemies as Christ taught, or are we to be sugar and have no enemies as the “religion of humanity” teaches? The often confusing pronouncements by Pope Francis seem to manifest this blurring of classical distinctions.
Professor Daniel J. Mahoney of Assumption College in Worcester, MA, has nailed the basic problem in a new book, The Idol of Our Age: How the Religion of Humanity Subverts Christianity. We talked about the many dangerous ideas arising from the book and how to counter them.

French educated attorney and author (and now Moscow resident) Alexandre Havard has made it his life mission to study patterns of leadership: what works, what doesn’t, and how to heal the deeper issues present in the crisis of leadership.
Retired Navy SEAL Commander Jocko Willink famously said, “There are no bad teams, only bad team leaders.” The implications of this for the Christian Church are as enormous as they are obvious. Havard’s books and lectures are not chiefly designed for a faith context but tap into universal truths about human nature, natural law, human temperaments, and what makes a leader truly excellent.

Most Americans (and many Canadians!) tend to view the political climate in Canada as hopeless, being run indirectly by LGBT activists, leftist public officials, neo-Marxist advisors, and most of it aided and abetted by a very liberal media establishment.
Even if this hyperbole were true, there are some people with conservative principles willing to step into the breach and run for office. My guest this week is one of them. Tanya Granic Allen is a wife, mother, professional communicator, parental rights advocate—and a practicing Catholic.
In 2018, despite rising popularity among Ontario voters, she was removed (illegally?) by Premier Doug Ford as a candidate for the Progressive Conservative Party leadership. That’s a longer side-bar story, but in this interview, she talks about “social conservative” values and how they shape voters’ decisions as much as economic or other factors. Her presidency of PAFE (Parents As First Educators) put pro-family, anti-sex education concerns in the public’s mind, which is a rare set of priorities in a Canadian politician. (Even privately pro-life ones are generally chicken to talk about it.)
But this unabashedly pro-life Catholic leader is a sign of great hope for a country under the spell of rabid secularism for too long.

The news satire site The Babylon Bee has run into a problem: the crazy world has become harder and harder to satirize. Aimed primarily (at least originally) at evangelical readers, “the Bee” has amassed a much larger audience including many Catholics who also enjoy Eye of the Tiber.
A few headline examples:
Christian Extremists Hit Downtown London; Dozens Of Tracts Passed Out
Sheltered Atheist Kid Not Allowed To Watch 'VeggieTales'
Christian Rushes To Get HIV Test After Brief Eye Contact With Gay Person
Out-Of-Touch Youth Pastor Still Saying 'WASSSSUUUUUP!?!?!'
Planned Parenthood Defends Bill Cosby: 'Sexual Assault Is Only 3% Of What He Does'
But as editor-in-chief Kyle Mann (this week’s guest) points out, there’s always a nugget of truth beneath the crust of comedy. Satire serves more than one purpose. Poking fun of Christian foibles and “worst practices” is not only fun, it reflects a certain confident humility. And it may even plants seeds of faith. Enjoy—and hey, lighten up!
In this episode you will learn * How Kyle came to his commitment to Christ * The origins of The Babylon Bee idea * Why so few Christians appreciate self-critical humor * Why satire is so hard to pull off today * How the Bee editors decide what “going too far” means * Possibilities of increased interfaith understanding based on what Protestants and Catholics both find hilarious * Why comedy is “divine” * How the best comedy draws close to reality but spins it into a manageable off-beat direction

Stories of conservative thought being silenced and censored online is now a problem so obvious that liberals like Canadian feminist (I know, almost a tautology) Meghan Murphy are taking note. Murphy was was banned for life from Twitter for using the birth name of a transgender person. The horror!
Matthew Peterson, vice president of education at the Claremont Institute, has had enough. He’s on a mission to gather together anyone—conservative or otherwise—motivated enough to fight back against the narrow-minded, one-sided agendae of Big Tech. How is it just that Google, Twitter, Facebook and other social media platforms routinely soft-ban or outright remove influencers with unapproved opinions?
Today’s heretics in the Church of SJWs may not be burned at the stake. They’re just booted out of polite cyber society. Then again, given the track record of violence by groups like Antifa, give them a chance…

Okay, this is a personal biggie. To get to talk to the mother of the baby boy, James Fulton Engstrom, who was stillborn on September 16, 2010, after a healthy pregnancy. The baby stayed dead for 61 minutes.
Let that sink in.
James’s parents, Bonnie and Travis, began praying—hoping very much against hope—for the intercession of Archbishop Fulton Sheen, who was born and raised near their hometown, to “do something!”
After 61 minutes, something totally unexpected and yet longed for happened. The baby’s heart quickened into a healthy rhythm, and a lovely pink flush replaced the ashen gray of his corpse. TOTALLY impossible, according to every medical expert who has examined the case, and yet it happened. But they weren’t out of the woods. Sweet Baby James, by all evidence, would never recover from the catastrophic loss of oxygen. Doctors predicted the worst.
The Engstroms leveraged social media and doubled down on the heavenly “ask.” People in many countries came to the assistance with prayers. And none of the medical disasters came to pass. James was, and is, normal.
This is an incredible story, and is set to be the bona fide miracle that will make “Uncle Fultie” become Blessed Fulton J. Sheen, one step away from canonization. Ah, cool!

The title a double meaning, his legal appeal on charges of sexual abuse that happened June 4-5, 2019, and his personal appeal as a man and as a Christian. I could have called it Everything You Know About the Pell Trial Is Wrong.
My guest this week explains why. Peter Westmore is the former President of the National Civic Council, and a writer for News Weekly. Westmore attended both trials of Cardinal Pell (and the appeal last week) and heard all the evidence provided to the court—twice. In June 2015, a complainant accused George Cardinal Pell of sexual assault (forced oral sex and genital fondling) involving two choir boys in the sacristy moments after Sunday Mass at the Melbourne Cathedral, in broad daylight, with Pell in full liturgical vestments, with the door open, in a church swarming with people leaving the building or strolling the nearby hallways.
None of the 25 witnesses at each trial (the first one of which ended in a hung jury) could attest to the truth of the claimant’s charges, which themselves changed over time. The other boy ended up overdosing on heroin, and, according to his own mother’s testimony, denied ever been sexually abused. The entire case against Cardinal Pell rests on one man’s say-so, with multiple layers of improbability if not complete impossibility.
An interesting, and telling, fact: Pope Francis has not suspended Pell’s priestly faculties despite the guilty verdict, while Ted McCarrick (never tried in court) was laicized and exiled to Kansas.

Lila Rose fought abortion before fighting abortion was cool. At the tender age of 15, she began the Live Action apostolate from her parents’ living room. She knew it was killing babies and wounding their mothers and fathers, and that “thoughts and prayers” alone is not a strategy.
By 18, the then Evangelical Christian Lila began doing undercover-with-hidden-cam work investigating Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers. What she saw and heard—and recorded for the world to see—shocked her. And so LiveAction.org was born and quickly grew.
Ten years out, and Live Action is a top leader and influencer in the area of authentic (and brave) pro-life education. As Lila points out, it’s not just about “learning facts.” It’s about how to put those facts—to quote St. Mother Teresa—into a living action. Hence, Live Action. Listen to Lila unfold the story of how the non-profit, non-partisan apostolate became a powerhouse model for other pro-lifers wondering what to do about the problem.

Out of nowhere, in a matter of weeks, Pete Buttigieg, the Gay Mayor of South Bend, IN, is a well-known fixture in the American media consumer’s psyche as a candidate for President of the United States. Time Magazine put him on the cover standing awkwardly with his husband (or is it wife?) Chasten with the headline “First Family.” Like, totally normal.
Dr. E. Michael Jones, author of 12+ books on faith and culture and the editor of Culture Wars Magazine has written a concise biography about Mayer Pete titled Home Alone, a riff on the candidate’s memoirs (well, a memoir cum political manifesto), Shortest Way Home: One Mayor's Challenge and a Model for America's Future.
As it happens, Mayor Pete grew up three doors down on the same street as the Jones family i South Bend. Jones’s youngest son Adam attended the same school, and was also a valedictorian (in different years, of course) and both went to Harvard.
Yet, Mayor Pete’s memoirs somehow—gosh, who knows why—there is no mention of neighbors like the Jones family. As Jones makes clear, almost nothing is what it appears when it comes to this longshot Democrat Party candidate.

“Brother, are you saved?” is the question most Catholics are not comfortable hearing. In fact, Catholics tend not to talk about “being saved” or even “salvation” itself, even though the whole point of the incarnation of Christ is enshrined front and center in the Creed, “for us men and for our salvation….”
So what is it, and why do so few Catholics seem able or even interested in talking about it? It’s a curious thing. Catholics seem more likely to couch it in terms of “going to heaven” rather than “being saved” which sounds Protestant. Dr. Michael Barber, associate professor of sacred Scripture and theology at the Augustine Institute, sets the record straight in this fact-laden interview about the One Thing that matters in this life and the life to come.

Why does Planned Parenthood target black neighborhood for abortion for sale? Why are there so few high-profile black pastors who are known for pro-life advocacy? Why do so few people know that Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood was a diehard eugenics supporter?
Rev. Walter Hoye has answers. He also has some practical wisdom to impart, and a courageous non-violent witness to emulate. This helps explain why Alveda King, the niece of Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., wrote the powerful Foreword to Walter’s biography (see link below). Hoye chose 30 days in jail time in 2009 for violating an absurd City of Oakland ordinance called a “bubble law” (which was created for him). What was his crime?
He held up a sign that read, “God loves you and your baby; let us help you.” No yelling, no intimidation, no pushy activism. Just a ministry of presence to give scared young women an alternative to what they’re about to choose.

Sometimes outsiders behave like insiders and vice versa. Agnostic Jewish author and critic David Horowitz has collected an awful lot of important social and historical information and put it all in one place: his new book Dark Agenda: The War to Destroy Christian America.
Why defend Christian America from her enemies—many of them liberal Jews at the forefront of radical movements? Because, inter alia, Horowitz is a recovering liberal radical himself and he knows the targets of his book and their rabid agenda very well.

Who cares about boys? Almost….nobody! Our culture focuses on feminist concerns, the wage gap myth, girls’ health, and so on. Boys and boyhood are simply not interesting or valuable enough for the elites to talk about.
Dr. Anthony Esolen had enough. So he wrote a fine book, Defending Boyhood, which lays out the problem, provides some historical context along with tons of examples from novels and movies. The need to support and defend boyhood is urgent and (if you have eyes to see) obvious.
In this episode you will learn * Why there is no perfect “golden age” where things were perfect but the principles and values of boyhood were much healthier * The effect of the failed Sexual Revolution on the world of boys * Why boys are in special need of rituals of self-discovery in ways girls are not * The connection between absent or abusive fathers and the homosexual impulse * How contraception disrupted the relationship between men and women, and hence the family, and how this affected our perception of boys (and children in general) * Why boys love to sing if the songs tell manly tales * How to survive in a culture bereft of institutions and clubs devoted to the care and growth of boys qua boys.
Resources mentioned in this episode * Defending Boyhood: How Building Forts, Reading Stories, Playing Ball, and Praying to God Can Change the World by Anthony Esolen * The Works of Rudyard Kipling * Penrod: Illustrated Edition by Booth Tarkington * Touchstone Magazine featuring Esolen’s contributions

What? Another too-little-too-late book defending marriage? Dr. Scott Hahn thinks the battle has just begun for a resurgent reverence for marriage as its been defined for 3000+ years, and was raised to the dignity of a Sacrament by Jesus Christ.
Marriage as Sacrament is badly misunderstood today, which is part of the reason why so many people leave their spouses when the going gets tough. Hahn, professor of theology at Franciscan University of Steubenville, OH, and author of over 40 books, knows firsthand how tough the going can get. Share this very personal interview with one of the best known and respected Catholic thinkers and influencers in American Church history.
In this episode you will learn * The deeper meaning of “it is not good for the man to be alone” (Genesis 2:18) * Why the Church calls marriage the Sacrament of “Matrimony” * The connection between the 1930 Anglican decision to allow contraception and the current crisis of the definition of marriage * Why marriage is the cell of the entire body of the Church and of the broader society * How couples who stick together provide not just a solid foundation for their kids but a living homily to others * Why the Sacrament of Matrimony is impossible without the “third party” of Jesus Christ

Socrates said that the order of the city was the order of the soul writ large. That observation is all the more true today—and not a compliment to the modern soul or the modern city. Most people simply don’t advert to the quiet influence the surrounding architecture has on their psyche: the shape and scale of buildings, the order and proportion (or lack thereof). The father of modern Bauhaus architecture is the German Walter Gropius, a promiscuous cad who married a promiscuous shrew named Anna Mahler, wife of composer Gustav Mahler. Dr. E. Michael Jones, editor of Culture Wars magazine says that Gropius painted into his architectural vision a radically new kind of building and with it, a revolution in urban planning.
In this episode you will learn * The subtle (?) ways in which the architecture that surrounds us tells us who we are and what our life’s priorities ought to be * How Gropius’s rationalization of his own degeneracy got transmuted into buildings built purely for function, and ugly as sin besides * Why rebellion against Logos leads to disorder and chaos in the external design of things * What public housing Projects in Chicago, suburban Moscow, and industrial Poland have in common * Why classical architecture as nurtured by Catholic principles and sound philosophy can lead the way to beautify both home and church design

Mike Lindell had a dream. Actually, he’s had a series of dreams, which have all come true. The founder and CEO of MyPillow.com—chances are good you’ve seen one of his infomercials—never dreamed (pardon the pun) that his longtime crack addiction would be a thing of the past.
Nor that he would be a major financial backer of a hit movie that was predicted to bite the box office dust.
And yet, Unplanned starring Ashley Bratcher doubled its predicted opening weekend take and continues to touch hearts and minds, thanks in part to Lindell’s vision for cultural change surrounding abortion. He is also generous in using his large platform to the cause near and dear to him: helping addicts get clean. His whole story is preposterous, if you think about it.
In this episode you will learn * How this non-MBA small business owner and inventor escaped a life-threatening addiction to crack cocaine. * Why Lindell is “all in” for President Donald Trump and how he (Lindell) knew Trump was not only going to be elected president, but would far surpass anyone’s expectations. * Why he is using his business platform to help fellow suffering addicts. * How he learned that Abby Johnson’s story was a thing in the first place. * Anecdotes from the filming of Unplanned. * Just how bad the opioid addiction crisis is, and how Mike Lindell is part of the solution.

Have you noticed how few people are willing to oppose publically the transgender agenda, no matter how dangerous to young mind—not to mention to the suffering people who go through with the mutilation surgery?
Oh, many people will privately object, and tutt tutt their disapproval.
British journalist and writer Caroline Farrow knows all about the first option. The Catholic wife and mother of five young kids appeared on ITV’s “Good Morning Britain” in September 2018, and used the Wrong Pronoun for the son of trans activist activist Susie Green, with whom Farrow was debating. The son was born Jack, a male, and subjected to the mutilation procedure on his 16th birthday in that bastion of high tech surgery, Thailand, and now goes by Jackie. Soon after, she described the situation as child abuse and the procedure in correct medical terminology on Twitter.
That’s why the Surrey Police called her recently with concerrrrrrrrrns.
She was “invited” to have a “voluntary” meeting with law enforcement after Ms. Green sicced them on her, scouring the internet for No Good Bad Things she may have said. All for using words on television and Twitter felt to be hurtful and offensive.
Monty Python, meet George Orwell. Caroline Farrow’s story is of a piece with my first interview with Dr. Jordan Peterson back in February, 2017, on compelled speech. In some ways, Peterson is the theory, Farrow the practice.
If you do an online search, the MSM routinely slaps together unflattering photos of the attractive Mrs. Farrow, label her a “devout Catholic” (in the tone of racists when they say “colored woman”), and invariably describe her comments as “transphobic.” Her story is, inter alia, an invitation for Catholics and other men of good will to find their courage and stand up to the new onslaught against free speech and religious freedom.

I was going to title this episode The Two Abbys, but that would have led to misunderstandings. It’s a two-hander featuring actress Ashley Bratcher and the woman she plays in the movie Unplanned, former Planned Parenthood Director Abby Johnson.
Unplanned came out after Gosnell and before Roe v Wade, the trio of strongly pro-life films of 2018 and 2019. Both the real life heroine Abby and the actress who brings her story to the screen thanks to co-writers Cary Solomon and Chuck Konzelman. An amazing story, now in cinematic garb.
In this episode you will learn * How the book came about to begin with * Why Hollywood’s MPAA gave it a Rated R rating and why this may help the movie’s box office * The secret that the mother of actress Ashley Bratcher’s confessed to her after she got the role and had begin filming * Why this is the kind of movie that changes the game regarding the reality of abortion * Anecdotes galore from the set

Carrie Gress is onto something extremely important. We all talk about the anti-Christ, and toxic masculinity, but what about the anti-Mary and toxic femininity? Isn’t our culture marinating in both? Isn’t this a problem hiding in plain sight?
Dr. Gress is a writer, teacher, and candle-maker (and wife and homeschooling mom) whose latest book, The Anti-Mary Exposed: Rescuing the Culture From Toxic Femininity, goes upstream from conventional thinking about feminism and the sexual chaos around us.
After this interview, you will know:
- The philosophical roots of second wave feminism
- Why so many feminists are lesbian or pro-LGBT
- Why you can’t have the spirit of anti-Christ without the spirit of anti-Mary
- How differently some women are treated by the media elites, like Sarah Huckabee, Sarah Palin, Dana Loesch
- How the twin aims of feminism (take down motherhood and virginity) ar resolved and healed in the person and mission of Our Lady (honored for 2000 years as Mother and Virgin)
- Why the answer to the toxicity is ever ancient, ever new: doing the will of God the Father in all things

Everything you know about the guilty verdict of George Cardinal Pell—along with the background and nature of the charges—is wrong. While sexual abuse is an abhorrent crime, and while Catholic bishops do not have a stellar record of reporting and stopping such crimes, this particular case stinks to high heaven.
George Weigel, best known as the biographer of Pope St. John Paul II, has known His Eminence for over 50 years. He has also closely examined the facts of the allegations and the context of Australian Church/State politics. There is something very, very smelly here.
After this interview, you will know:
- Why is was not just unlikely, but virtually impossible, that Pell could have done what he was alleged to have done two two choir boys in the sacristy of St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Melbourne back in 1996
- The ways in which the whole Australian justice system is also on trial here
- How the ideological collusion between the Victoria police and the Aussie media machine whipped up public venom against Cardinal Pell
- The ways in which George Pell serves as an ideal target for militant secularists in Australia
- Key facts that would have ordinarily exculpated someone so accused
- Pell’s chances for acquittal in his upcoming (June 2019) appeal

Gavin McInnes (muhKINNis) defies any kind of shorthand description. The perpetually lied about McInnes is, inter alia, the co-founder of Vice magazine, the founder of the Proud Boys, a social critic and commentator, a satirist so good his enemies don’t get him, a writer, an ex-atheist Catholic convert, and a resolute family man.
He’s also stinking hilarious, if potty mouthed. (Maybe partly why?) So, potty word alert on this one.
Banned from YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon—and the sovereign country of Australia owing to his “bad character”—Gavin has also launched a lawsuit against the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) for slandering him as a “hate group” (ironic, considering what the SPLC doe$ for a living) and damaging is career.
After this interview, you will know:
- The background to his exit from the Proud Boys group (it’s not what you’d think)
- Why the Right wants to debate and the Left wants to delete
- Why the far Left became allies with militant Islam
- What “Western chauvinism” means and doesn’t mean
- Where his punch-back-twice-as-hard attitude comes from
- Why his woke (and rumor has it fictional) brother Miles McInnes is being hired by Rebel Media

I have been reading Dr. Judith Reisman’s courageous research since 1989, when her explosive book, Kinsey, Sex, and Fraud, came out, exploding diehard myths about the sadomasochist pervert who spawned the Playboy Philosophy and Fake Sex Science.
Reisman has been fighting the toxic and deadly effects of Kinsey’s failed Sexual Revolution long before it was cool to do so.
She is a Research Professor at Liberty University School of Law, a scientific adviser, California Protective Parents Association, and a distinguished Senior Fellow at the Inter-American Institute, and the author of books you need to read (see below) if you want to understand why Kinsey is the father of the anti-family, anti-woman, anti-chastity chaos and destruction known as the Sexual Revolution. Sixties. What an honor to introduce her and her work to a new international audience!

******* *The Roots of The Priestly Abuse Scandal—Part II The renowned Dutch psychiatrist and Nazi camp survivor Conrad Baars, MD, diagnosed the roots of the current priesthood crisis some 50 years ago. His insights into what he and longtime collaborator Dr. Anna Terruwe called “deprivation neurosis” are unusually accurate and they anticipate today’s headlines.
As a therapist, writer, and editor, his daughter Suzanne Baars is carrying on her father’s work She dives deep into her late father’s work and how it applies to the current scandals.
In this episode you will learn * How Baars’ experience of enduring 19 months in the dreaded Buchenwald concentration camp formed and confirmed in him in the work of psychiatry * The role played by the anthropology of St. Thomas Aquinas in Baars’ insights into emotional health * Why true affirmation is so rare, and yet provides the answer to loneliness, compulsive habits, and deprivation neurosis * How emotional immaturity has given rise to the porn pandemic, divorce, and a generation of beta males * The relationship between essentially weak men and maternal ways of governing * Why priests need to be willing to be hurt and to hurt

This is the first in a series on the roots of the priestly abuse scandal. I know, a sad and depressing topic. But we have to “go there” if we want to “get there.”
Father Paul Sullins, PhD, author and professor emeritus of sociology at the Catholic University of America, has done us all a huge favor. He has collated and made sense of the data drawn from the John Jay Report, the data from the USCCB, the 2002 Los Angeles Times poll about homosexual priests, the data of the Pennsylvania Grand Jury Reports, and intel from CARA (Center for Applied Research In the Apostolate).
It’s all in one place, a study done in collaboration with The Ruth Institute. Get the link below. His findings are stunning and sobering.
In this episode you will learn * Approximately how many boys would NOT have had their lives badly damaged by homosexual priests had the ratio of homosexuals in the priesthood had not skyrocketed from 1950-1980s. * Why we need to boldly tell the truth about the real causes of the crisis * The approximate proportion of priests today between 65 and 85 who are homosexual * Why the crisis is not about clericalism * Solid facts to back up bad logic and anti-Catholic arguments about celibacy, and the truth of what has happened in the last 50 years regarding predator behavior among some priests

Self-described feminist singer Paula Cole had a hit single in 1996 titled “Where Have All the Cowboys Gone,” in which she bemoaned the dearth of real men (“Where is my John Wayne; where is my prairie song; where is my happy ending; where have all the cowboys gone?”)
Something happened to men in the last 50 years. They stopped being men and became guys, and now, in tragic numbers, feckless soy boys.
Dr. Taylor Marshall and Tim Gordon of the smashing TnT podcast (Taylor Marshall and co-host Tim Gordon) and YouTube channel join me to talk about the death of men and how it has affected the behavior of the hierarchy of the Catholic Church. What would a resurrection of men look like?
In this episode you will learn * Why we need to stop validating the word feminism (namely its toxic meaning) with some kind of nice adjective, like “Christian feminism,” “new feminism.” * The roots of the crisis of masculinity * How this crisis manifests itself in the disappointing behavior of so many priests, bishops, and cardinals * Why the biblical analogy of Christ as Bridegroom and the Church as Bride remains the fundamental truth of the relationship between the sexes * The basic distinction between masculine and feminine, and why the sexes are not “equal” but complementary. * The true meaning of submission in Ephesians 5 and why it doesn’t mean subjugation

We read a lot about “the priestly sex abuse scandal,” which goes by various names, most of them euphemisms meant to deflect the truth of the matter. Joseph Sciambra knows all about the deflection of truth. He grew up in the San Francisco Bay area, a product of the beige Catholicism Lite of the 1970s and 80s.
Casual porn use starting before he was ten led him down an increasingly perverse path including a complete embrace of the homosexual lifestyle. He performed in gay porn. He had a near-death experience. He had terrifying encounters with the demonic. And Jesus Christ liberated him.
Joseph became friends with the founding father of reparative therapy, Dr. Joseph Nicolosi, PhD, and the founder of the Courage apostolate. Father John Harvey, OFSF.
His fine blog, josephsciambra.com, is the go-to place if you want to see the pro-LGTB dioceses, archdioceses, gay-friendly prelates and programs infecting the Catholic Church in America and beyond. In this interview, we discuss just how lavender is the Church today, even after the ostensible efforts at ridding the Church of what Pope Benedict XVI called “the moral filth”?
In this episode you will learn * How he escaped the brutal, dark world of the Castro District homosexual life * Why homosexuals cannot function as healthy, effective Catholic priests * How homosexuality became normalized through pop culture * The reasons why Sciambra believes the “born that way” theory is dead wrong * How chastity and living the sacramental life of Christ continues to change his life * His message to bishops and archbishops who allow the LGTB agenda to take root in their dioceses

If the story of the 1973 Roe v Wade Supreme Court decision, which gave us the unlimited abortion licence, had been filmed as a pro-abortion message movie, the money would have rolled in and financed the project in a single day.
But when actor director Nick Loeb told the truth about the events of 1973, he and his production crew faced opposition, rejection, and no shortage of hatred thrown their way. They had to shoot under a fake name (“1973”) just to stay under the radar. But the final title is Roe v Wade, starring Jon Voight, Robert Davi, and Stacey Dash, with some surprise cameos we can’t release yet.It’s set for a 2019 release, unless further attacks delay its debut.
Loeb (who plays my former guest Dr. Bernard Nathanson, RIP) tells the behind-the-scenes story about writing, producing, and co-starring in Roe v Wade, the most divisive and little understood legal decision in American history.
In this episode you will learn * Why this story is personal to its main creator, Nick Loeb, who is battling his ex-fiancee Sofia Vergara over their frozen embryos * The real life players behind the headlines and the parts they played, and the lies they told * Why Hollywood and its MSM allies have tried to squash, ban, and otherwise impede the making and advertising of this movie * Information about Norma McCorvey (“Jane Roe” of the decision) and Margaret Sanger you never knew * How each round of push-back and persecution resulted in increased support from the public for the project
Resources mentioned in this episode * The lyrics to a bawdy song Nathanson (before his conversion) and his fellow OB-GYN interns used to sing about the money to be made through abortion: There's a fortune . . . in abortion
Just a twist of the wrist and you're through.
The population . . . of the nation
Won't grow if it's left up to you.
In the daytime . . . in the nighttime
There is always some work to undo.
Oh, there's a fortune . . . in abortion
But you'll wind up in the pen before you're through.
Now there's a gold mine . . . in the sex line
And it's so easy to do.
Not only rabbits . . . have those habits
So why worry 'bout typhoid and flu?
You never bother . . . the future father
And there are so many of them, too.
Oh, there's a fortune . . . in abortion
But you'll wind up in the pen before you're through.

Bas Rutten was basically the small skinny guy in the Charles Atlas comic book advertisement, “The insult that made a man out of Mac.” Rutten had two major health issues that made him target for bullies: eczema and asthma. Puffing around the schoolyard out of breath, he got called “leper” and other epithets kids love to be called, and taunted with violence. This went on for 14 years, until, against his parents wishes, little Rutten took a martial arts class and decided to stop running from the chief bully and his posse.
One hard punch to said bully’s fragile resulted in a free visit to the hospital. And it changed Bas Rutten’s life forever, leading him to a career about which few athletes can boast. Bas Rutten eventually became UFC World Champion and was inducted into the MMA (mixed martial arts) Hall of Fame.
He’s also a deeply devoted Catholic convert and family man.
In this interview you will learn:
- How a sickly young Dutch boy went from bully fodder to world champion fighter
- How the rules for MMA matches maximize the safety of the competitors
- Anecdotes galore about motivation, conviction, and the stamina it takes to be the best of the best in the world
- His advice for parents with kids who are being bullied
- His terrifying encounters with the ghost of a dead woman and how his bold confrontation with her resolved the trouble
- Why Bas prays all his prayers in Latin, the mother tongue of the Church

This week’s guest is a mentor and kind of spiritual mother to Milo Yiannopoulos (whose very candid interview with me was Episode 101) and wrote the bracing Foreword to his latest book (see link below). Dr Rachel Fulton Brown is a tenured professor of history at the University of Chicago, and a renowned medieval scholar with a speciality in the area of devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary.
She is also a fervent convert to the Catholic Faith. In this episode we dive deep into the biblical and historical roots of the role of the Blessed Mother in salvation history, and suggest ways to answer objections to the truth about Mary.
In this episode you will learn: * Why we say Mary is the Mother of God and not just the Mother of Jesus * Why all Marian doctrine is Christological in nature * How the medieval era got things right regarding the role of Mary in the life of the Church * When devotion to Mary went into eclipse and how to revive it * Why Our Lady is a powerful intercessor for all mankind, not just Catholics * The reason why all the titles of Mary in all the litanies can never exhaust her beauty nor the full truth about her person and mission.

This episode debuted exactly a year ago, and I could think of no better show this year to honor my all-time favorite movie, Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life (1947) through the eyes of two women with close ties to its creation.
If Mr. Capra didn't write it, why do I call it “Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life? It's because that’s how the movie was marketed, which helps explain why the film got only a so-so reception when it was first released. Most of Mr. Capra’s pre-World War II movies were so sweet-hearted that they later earned the moniker “Capracorn,” not meant as a compliment. It’s a Wonderful Life is one of the most critically acclaimed films ever made. Nominated for five Academy Awards including Best Picture, recognized by the American Film Institute as one of the 100 best American films ever made, and placed number 11 on its initial 1998 greatest movie list, it also ranked number one on its list of the most inspirational American films of all time. Think about that. In light of the fact that hundreds of thousands of movies have been made, this is a jaw-dropping achievement. By the end of the Second World War, though, the mood of the movie-going public had shifted, as I wrote about the making of the movie in National Review a few years ago HERE. The next day after it was published, an appreciative email from a woman named Mary Owen arrived in my inbox. Turns out, Mary is the daughter of actress Donna Reed, who played Mary Bailey, the wife of James Stewart’s George Bailey. I thanked her for the lovely email and we had a few back-and-forths. After my podcast was up on two feet and spreading around the world (110 countries and counting), I thought it would be fun to have her on the show to talk about her mother’s role in this now-international favorite Christmas movie and to learn some back story to her mother’s career and her commitment to writing back to the G.I’s who wrote to her from the trenches and the gun turrets of World War II. The interview segues nicely into the next one, a rich conversation with actress Karolyn Grimes who played Zuzu, one of the four Bailey kids. Remember Zuzu’s petals? This was a real treat for me who loves the movie so well, and I know it will be for you as well. I learned, among other things, how much Mrs. Grimes suffered as a teen when her mother died and then the next year her father was killed and she became a ward of the state—then “rescued” by an aunt and uncle in Missouri, which was an unhappy home situation. Karolyn also played Debbie, the daughter of David Niven and Loretta Young in another Christmas favorite, The Bishop’s Wife. For those of us who can’t gobble up enough trivia and true stories about It’s a Wonderful Life, Mrs. Grimes is a treasure trove of first hand memories and insights! Yes, I was star-struck, okay? Is that so wrong? In this episode you will learn * How Donna Reed’s work represents the best of the Golden Age of television and movies * Why she made sure she was “just a regular mom” with Mary and her other real-life children * The story of how Reed’s children found a shoebox full of correspondence with American soldiers from the War in her Bel Air home 65 years later * Why Owens thinks the movie that made her mother a household name has such enduring appeal * Who is the oldest living cast member (hint: it’s not one of the child actors) * What it was like to be on set with Frank Capra and to appear with Jimmy Stewart * The ways in which It’s a Wonderful Life touched the lives of the cast and crew forever.

Like Santa himself, Tim Gordon and I have made a list, checked it twice, and have found out which Christmas movies are naughty or nice. Tim, as you will remember from Episode 80, is the author of Catholic Republic: How America Will Perish Without Rome and the co-host with Dr. Taylor Marshall on their popular podcast/YouTube channel.
This is a free-wheeling dueling rants about Christmas classics and clunkers from the point of view of cinephilic Catholic dads. Say what you like, but our opinions are correct, I tell you. Well, mine are...
Movies mentioned in this episode: Here are the movies we discuss with brio, while openly ribbing each other because, well, Advent is penitential: It’s a Wonderful Life
Elf
Meet John Doe
A Christmas Story
The Bishop’s Wife
Miracle of 34th Street

Before we get too rah-rah about the “springtime for Christianity” and “the new evangelization,” we need to pay attention to the truth of things. On the ground. Right now. It’s grim. Each year, six times as many Catholics leave the Church as enter it.” By the age of 24, those that leave are already gone and invariably don’t come back. The reasons vary.
Dr. Taylor Marshall, founder of the New Saint Thomas Institute, has not only crunched the numbers but devised a practical solution to this ecclesial bleed out. It’s called Catholic Life Prep. Parents and their teen-aged kids now have a one-stop-shop resource that hits the problem of CFL (collegiate faith loss) head on and provides a massive counter-response of faith, reason, and evangelical passion. Do NOT miss this one.
In this episode you will learn: * The leading cause of young people losing the Faith * The historical context for the bleed-out * Why parents should not blame themselves (unless they shirked their duty to hand on the Faith) * The role of both natural law and Scripture to answer objections to the Catholic worldview * Why fathers are indispensable to the process of passing on the truths and the example of the Faith * What kinds of intellectual tools professors use to destroy students’ Christian faith and how to counter them
Resources recommended in this episode: * Catholic Life Prep * New Saint Thomas Institute * Catechism of the Catholic Church -- FREE LINK!

Mike Sweeney played major league baseball for 16 seasons at the top level of performance, with a career batting average of .297,with 215 homeruns, and 909 RBIs. He’s a five-time All-Star; he was inducted into the Kansas City Royals Hall of Fame; he has won the Hutch Award for being a total gentleman and persevering fighter in the game. In 2002, he hit .340 for the second-highest batting average in the American League and the second-highest in club history only to George Brett's .390 in 1980.
By any standards, a phenomenal ball player.
But Mike is also a fervent Catholic who, as this interview shows well, is not afraid to be vulnerable and to tell the truth about his own weaknesses. His father Mike, Sr. (whom he calls “my hero”) is a huge ongoing influence. It shows.
In this interview, we talk about the brutal statistics of retired professional athletes: the rates of bankruptcy, suicide, divorce, PTSD, along with higher rates of drug and alcohol use. Men who “have it all” often discover the hard way how life is once the big checks, the wild stadium applause, the constant ego stroking are all over after you retire.
It makes the athlete ask, “who am I, really?” To often, the answer is either “I have no idea,” or “without my uniform, my fans, and my riches, I am nothing.” This is where Mike’s shining example comes in.
In this episode you will learn: * The indispensable role of the father—for good or for ill—in a boy’s life and formation * How an episode of violence (in this case, a bench-clearing brawl instigated by Sweeney!) led to a dramatic leap forward in his spiritual life * Why being manly is not the opposite of being childlike * How a major league professional can and did navigate the temptations and vicissitudes of life on the road * How fame can be an addiction that can destroy someone, or make someone else truly humble * Why everyday affirmation has an almost mystical power to inspire heroic courage

Eric Metaxas fires on a lot of creative pistons. He writes like a dream, has a knack for distilling a thousand historical facts and personal details both in his fine books (see below) and on his popular nationally syndicated radio show The Eric Metaxas Show, and also has a rapier-like wit. He also spoke with amiable confidence about his now famous biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer at the National Prayer Breakfast a few steps away from President Obama. A strange but impressive mashup if there ever was one.
I hate him.
Okay, back to my show notes. I had interviewed Eric a few years back about his book Seven Women and the Secret of Their Greatness, and remembered vividly his considerable raconteur skills.
Then he caught my attention again with an embarrassingly glowing tweet about my Really Controversial Interview with Milo Yiannopoulos the other week. That was it. With a weakness for public praise by intelligent people, I had to hear more. Within hours, the interview you are about to enjoy was set.
We talked about the way his new book Donald Drains the Swamp fuses adult non-fiction with children’s fiction, and about the knack with which both Mr. Trump and Mr. Yiannopoulos force onlookers to drop their masks—fast.
Pound for pound, I’d say this is the most eclectic of the 103 episodes of The Patrick Coffin Show so far. Per my other Really Controversial Interview with Jordan Peterson, I went Full Metal Catholic and asked the Greek Orthodox cum Evangelical Christian Eric to finish the sentence, “I’m not Catholic, because…”
Let me guess. Hopefully, this good humored exchange of ideas about cultural restoration won’t be tagged as Controversial. But you know how people are these days.
Enjoy and share!
In this episode you will learn: * Why non-Catholics and Catholics have much more in common than in division and why we must be willing to link arms for common cause—without watering down our respective differences * How to live a robust, and apology-free Christian faith in a very secular context * The top Hollywood scribe we discover during the interview as being a mutual friend * Why “underground Christian” is an oxymoron * How to use humor as a way to soften your audience and make them more receptive to your message * The difference between true and false ecumenism

Doors to Coffin Nation are now OPEN. Hurry, enrollment ends on Monday, November 26. LEARN MORE >> COFFIN NATION. ********
This is Phil’s second appearance on the show, after talking about his book Lost Shepherd: How Pope Francis is Misleading His Flock*. This time, the veteran journalist doubles down and broads his analysis to include the widespread corruption and complicity of the bishops with a brand new book, The Smoke of Satan: How Corrupt and Cowardly Bishops Betrayed Christ, His Church, and the Faithful . . . and What Can Be Done About It.* A daring book (the publisher explains that they didn’t particularly want to publish it) and badly needed. Heavy sigh.
As ever, it’s the uncomfortable truths that need to be told.
In this episode you will learn: * Why the badly damaged brand and reputation of the Catholic Church is at stake and why books like this continue to be written today * Why it’s not a sin to charitably but directly call out bad leadership in the Church * How the bishops seem, in so many cases, not to have learned the lessons of the 2002 scandal that broke in Boston * The role played by gross misinterpretations of the Second Vatican Council led to the current crisis * Why concern for the Church’s reputation can never outdo concern for victims of priest predators * The facts as to why the issue we’re dealing with is not “pedophile priests” but homosexual predator priests
Resources recommended in this episode: * The Smoke of Satan: How Corrupt and Cowardly Bishops Betrayed Christ, His Church, and the Faithful . . . and What Can Be Done About It by Phil Lawler * Lost Shepherd: How Pope Francis is Misleading His Flock by Phil Lawler * Index of Leading Catholic Indicators: The Church Since Vatican II by Kenneth Jones * Pascendi Dominici Gregis Encyclical by Pope St. Pius X on Modernism

It’s been over a year since professional polemicist Milo Yiannopoulos more or left public life after losing three gigs in a row: his Breitbart editor position, his Simon & Schuster publishing deal (for his book Dangerous), and his plum CPAC speaker slot.
A massive plummet from the heights of internet fame (infamy?)
So what really happened? What did he say on those 2015 and 2016 podcasts that surfaced last February? More importantly, what did he mean? And does he have any regrets?
Milo, like probably 99% of the population, Catholic or otherwise, has gaps between what he professes and what he lives. St. Paul describes the phenomenon well in Romans 7:19, “For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing.” Certainly, going ahead with an attempted marriage to his boyfriend puts him at odds with the teaching of the Catholic Church.
He has a new book out titled, Diabolical: How Pope Francis Has Betrayed Clerical Abuse Victims Like Me—and Why He Has To Go. Many of his followers, and obviously his enemies, want to know why someone who is Openly Gay [™] and civilly married to his boyfriend is qualified to criticize the Pope. They also want a close look at the man himself, in his own words, as distinct from the hysterical rumor mill about him.
In this episode you will learn: * Milo’s childhood Catholic roots and the origin of the surname Yiannopoulos * The facts about his abuse at the hands of a priest, who since committed suicide * How he manages to reconcile his homosexual lifestyle with the Church he professes to love * What his real opinions are regarding homosexuals * Why he is passionate about “Making the Vatican Straight Again” (a chapter in his book)

It’s a curious fact that a movie that is literally not about abortion would be so effective as a pro-life story. Gosnell: The Trial of America's Biggest Serial Killer has caused a media splash by portraying the media in the film as too chicken to cover the trial of Kermit Gosnell, the Philadelphia abortionist who was ultimately convicted of multiple counts of murder.
By “media” I mean largely social media, and word of mouth. Stories roll in from across the country of theater owners playing games with show times (this happened to me in Southern California), seemingly suggesting that moviegoers not watch it, despite high viewer rating (Google users rate it at 97%) and the fact that it opened against much bigger budgeted films.
Scribe Andrew Klavan (crime writer, and screenwriter of Don’t Say a Word and True Crimes, directed by Clint Eastwood) describes how the harrowing subject matter ot translated to the big screen, and how husband-wife producer team Phelim McAleer and Ann McElhinney faced on uphill battle after another. And still so, in terms of fighting those forces that want this movie to die.
I can sort of see why. I just read of two moral conversions by influencers with large audiences who walked into the theater as pro-choice and walked out as pro-life. One is Florida political blogger Kathy Zhu. The other is Federalist writer Adam Mill.This is not a preachy movie, as Klavan makes clear–and as any objective viewer will conclude.
Gosnell is a rare blend of Christian premise, serious writing chops, and a CSI-like narrative of the facts as they are, able directed by Nick Searcy (who also plays Gosnell’s attorney Mike Cohan).
In this episode you will learn: * How a movie is made, from concept to final story * Why Gosnell, a movie not about abortion per se, yet grabs the viewer by the lapel and forces him to answer certain questions about life, death, and the law * The level of opposition faced by the filmmakers, from the beginning * Behind-the-scenes stories about the crafting and filming of Gosnell * How Klavan drew upon his crime novel skills to bring this real-life trial to life

We all know about the Sixties, both the decade and the cultural ethos it generated. But do we know the players, leaders, architects, and financiers who created the Sexual Revolution that made the Sixties infamous?
Dr. Jennifer Roback-Morse, author and foundress of The Ruth Institute, has the answers. Her stemwinder of a book, The Sexual State: How Elite Ideologies Are Destroying Lives and Why the Church Was Right All Along, tells the sordid tale, naming names and taking no prisoners.
In this interview you will learn:
- When the “Sixties” actually began
- The roots of dissent inside the Catholic Church and how it became allied with the Church’s secular enemies
- How elites like John D. Rockefeller III worked to insinuate population control ideas within the Church hierarchy
- Why divorce, contraception, and transgender ideology all tend toward the same purpose
- What parents can do to counter the bad ideas that swamp college campuses regarding sex, marriage, and faith.

On August 2, 2018, the Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Luis Cardinal Ladaria, announced that Pope Francis authorized a change in Art 2267 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church regarding the death penalty.
The new phrasing declares that the death penalty can no longer be applied in any case, anywhere in the world no matter the crime. Is this a legitimate “development of doctrine” as the Pope’s supporters affirm? Are Catholics now required to give the “religious submission of mind and will” to this new viewpoint of the Roman Pontiff, which, according to Vatican II’s Lumen Gentium 25, applies even to papal teaching that is not ex cathedra? Can the new Catechism be changed again?
Associate professor of philosophy at Pasadena City College, Dr. Ed Feser, believes it can and, should, be rescinded. The teaching as now phrased seems to openly contradict, not merely amend or develop, the 2000-year-old support for the death penalty in some cases. This is one not to miss.
In this episode you will learn: * Why, from the Bible, the Church fathers and doctors, and many saints, and sacred Tradition, the Catholic Church has traditionally supported the death penalty * How the death penalty can lead to the repentance and redemption of the condemned * The perils of letting vicious criminals continue their evil acts inside prison * The strongly held opinion of Pope Francis that even life sentences are the practical equivalent of the death penalty, and therefore morally unacceptable * How you can understand what the next steps might be in light of a worldwide effort to encourage the cardinals of the Church to revisit the Catechism reboot

Dr. Lee Podles is an author and researcher with over 20 years’ experience as a federal investigator. He’s neither a loopy liberal with an axe to grind nor a bitter Trad who hates everything that happened after the Council of Trent. He’s a husband and father of six who is fed up with the conspiracy of silence and the constant use of euphemisms when it comes to the priestly abuse crisis.
One of the bases for his anger is the astonishingly similar pattern of a) abuse (mostly homosexual predation), b) traumatic imprint in the victim, and that fact that c) few people believe the victim, d) bishop moves predators around (or claims “no legal duty” to disclose previous molestation of minors in the background of priests, e) either pay out enormous sums of money in settlements or double down on undermining the victim.
Not for the faint of heart, his 2008 book Sacrilege: Sexual Abuse in the Catholic Church is a tour de force—a journey into dark recesses of the secretive bishops’ club in which lawyering up and refusing responsibility characterize the crisis.
Don’t miss this riveting conversation with a courageous researcher who—as an indispensable minimum—wants the Church herself to purge, repent, and renew through telling the truth.
In this episode you will learn: * Why “clericalism” feeds the problem but does not explain it * Why Catholic laymen need to take the lead in restoring the Church to her rightful place and mission * That the crisis is international in scope, even if it represents only a small minority of priests * It is not a “pedophilia” scandal but a homosexual predator one * Signs of hope that Christ has not abandoned His Church

Dr. Richard Fitzgibbons has 40 years’ experience as a psychiatrist. His expertise is in the clinical benefits of forgiveness and in the interpersonal dynamics of anger. The priestly abuse crisis provides plenty of anger, and plenty of opportunity for forgiveness, where appropriate. But is the crisis about “clericalism” as some have claimed?
Fitzgibbons believes that if anyone blames clericalism participates in the cover-up since the crisis is mainly about homosexual predators destroying young lives. Euphemisms and changing the subject are not a strategy for restoration.
In this episode you will learn: * The psychological roots of same-sex attraction * The difference between sinful anger and the morally neutral emotion of anger * Why forgiveness is a choice, not a feeling * The way in which clericalism has helped give cover to the perpetrators * Why the Catholic Church is still the unique repository of Christ’s truth

Tucker Carlson is very good at what he does, which is engage guests and topics on his prime time-slotted Fox News show Tucker Carlson Tonight. With aplomb and wit—which is hard when your guest is an angry eedjit,as the Irish say—he gets down to brass tacks on whatever the topic is.
His brand new book is titled Ship of Fools: How a Selfish Ruling Class Is Bringing America to the Brink of Revolution. And he means it. His thesis: you can have egalitarianism AND oligarchy. One of the has got to go. Yet the book, like its creator, is often hilarious in its own way.
In this episode you will learn: * Who the major players are—the “fools” of the title—and why they’re included * Why elites and oligarchs come in all religions, or none, and all skin colors * A brief history of how American culture shifted toward Krazy in the last few years * How the 2016 election of Donald Trump was a sign of electoral unhappiness that got worse over decades * How liberals sell fake science, climate change (denying contrary evidence) and why abortion is the untouchable sacrament of the Left * Some reasons to keep a sense of humor!

This episode with “Marcantonio Colonna” (real name Dr. Henry Sire) is a do-over, owing to poor sound quality. The upside is that got to hit topics I didn’t get to because of time constraints in the previous episode.
The pontificate of the former Jorge Mario Bergoglio, SJ, as Pope Francis started off full of promise as one of reform and renewal. Most were happy to learn the new Pope was from Latin America, and many thought the Church could stand some fresh air and energy.
But things have take one bad turn after another. Never has a Roman Pontiff been the source of so much confusion, weaponized ambiguity, nor been seemingly motivated by such a political modus operandi. A spate of books have come out in the last year discussing what can no longer be denied: that the current papacy has been tainted by corruption, scandal, and (to take one example) the Holy Father’s refusal to address the stunning allegations by Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò.
Space here forbids a full account of the problems Catholics around the world are now awakening to, but this interview with historian Dr. Henry Sire author is the-now worldwide publishing phenomenon, The* Dictator Pope: The Inside Story of the Francis Papacy***, goes into greater detail, starting with Bergoglio’s handling of predator priests in his native Buenos Aires to to current problems. If you’ve been wincing as you wonder what the next confusing or vexing papal decision or directive is going to be, don’t miss this respectful conversation.
In this episode you will learn: * How the political philosophy of Argentine dictator Juan Perón, who ruled the country intermittently in the decades after World War II, strongly influenced young Jorge Bergoglio * Why Perónism, as a strategy for implementing an agenda, is neither conservative nor liberal: it is Machiavellian * How Pope Francis’s defenders do not answer the evidence, but change the subject or resort to ad hominem attacks * The ways in which a climate of fear reigns inside the walls of the Vatican * Specific names, places, and facts that must be confronted when assessing the level of dereliction of episcopal duty * How to stay hopeful and balanced in the meantime through intensified prayer and renewing the effort at understanding the perennial teachings of the Church

The pontificate of the former Jorge Mario Bergoglio, SJ, as Pope Francis has not exactly met the excited hopes of Catholics around the world. Most were happy to learn the Holy Father was from Latin America, and many thought the Church could stand some fresh air and energy.
But things have not turned out so rosy. Never has a Roman Pontiff been the source of so much confusion, ambiguity, and been motivated by such an obviously politicized modus operandi. A spate of books have come out in the last year discussing what can no longer be denied: that the current papacy has been tainted by corruption, scandal, and (to take one example) the refusal to address the stunning allegations by Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò.
Space here forbids a full account of the problems Catholics around the world are now awakening to, but this interview with Dr. Henry Sire (pen name Marcantonio Colonna), who wrote what is now a worldwide publishing phenomenon, The Dictator Pope: The Inside Story of the Francis Papacy, goes into greater detail, starting with Bergoglio’s handling of predator priests in his native Buenos Aires. If you’ve been wincing along, wondering what the next confusing or vexing papal decision or directive is going to be, don’t miss this conversation.
In this episode you will learn: * How the political philosophy of Argentine dictator Juan Perón, who ruled the country intermittently in the decades after World War II, strongly influenced young Jorge Bergoglio * Why Perónism, as a strategy for implementing an agenda, is neither conservative nor liberal: it is Machiavellian * How Pope Francis’s defenders do not answer the evidence, but change the subject or resort to ad hominem attacks * The ways in which a climate of fear reigns inside the walls of the Vatican * Specific names, places, and facts that must be confronted when assessing the level of dereliction of episcopal duty * How to stay hopeful and balanced in the meantime through intensified prayer and renewing the effort at understanding the perennial teachings of the Church

Michael Jones * Lost Shepherd: How Pope Francis Is Misleading His Flock by Philip Lawler * To Change the Church: Pope Francis and the Future of Catholicism by Ross Douthat

Michael Pakaluk is a father of 15 (not a typo—you can read the fascinating backstory in the memoir T*he Appalling Strangeness of the Mercy of God about his late wife Ruth, who may one day be raised to the altars, but that’s another story). I mention that he’s the father of a sprawling passel of children because it is germane to this interview and to the essay he wrote in a recent edition of First Things* magazine that got my attention.
Pakaluk connects to dots that don’t seem at first to have much in common: the change of phrasing in the Catechism of the Catholic Church regarding the death penalty and the passive or abhorrent handling of the priestly abuse scandal.
The basic connection is an inability to exercise fatherly authority when it come to imposing punishments that involve separation, vengeance, and isolation. All of which distinguish true justice from what he calls “regulatory compliance.”
Bad fatherhood leads to weak and passive men, which in turn leads to doctrinal innovations and policies that are weak and passive, and hence dangerous for the Church, not to mention the victims of homosexual predators and other criminally behaving priests and bishops. Both deficiencies have made it harder for non-Catholics to accept the truth claims of the Church, and harder for Catholics to continue to trust their leaders.
In this episode you will learn: * Why vengeance is a virtue not a vice * How vengeance is not opposed to Christian meekness * How passivity in the face of evil is not a masculine trait and how this has wreaked havoc in the Church * The reason why saying “punishment is never retributive, but only deterrent” is a grave error * How the crisis of fatherhood in general helps explain the crisis among men who are called Father by their flock * Why a new emphasis on chastity in preaching and teaching needs to take root * How the weak passivity has influenced and been influenced by the theory of Hans Urs Von Balthasar of a possibly-empty hell
Resources recommended in this episode: * The Appalling Strangeness of the Mercy of God: The Story of Ruth Pakaluk - Convert, Mother & Pro-life Activist ed by Michael Pakaluk and Ruth Pakaluk * Essay “Capital Punishment and the Priestly Abuse Crisis” by Michael Pakaluk, in First Things, August 22, 2018 * By Man Shall His Blood be Shed: A Catholic Defense of Capital Punishment by Edward Feser and Joseph Bessette

This special episode is made from three sit-down interviews I did at the recent 50th Anniversary of Humanae Vitae conference in Ontario, CA. I spoke with three experts in diverse fields, all with one thing in common: the ability to clearly describe why contraception is wrong and how to communicate that truth to others.
Dr. Christopher Kaczor, PhD, is professor of philosophy at Loyola-Marymount University in Los Angeles. He spoke to me about the child as good—a great good. Seems odd to have to say that out loud, but this is where we’re at as a society and a Church. Kaczor delivered on the moral philosophy aspect of Humanae Vitae.
Dr. George Delgado, MD, is medical director of Culture of Life Family Health Care in San Diego. He is also a Natural Family Planning Medical Consultant trained in NaProTECHNOLOGY and is board certified in family medicine as well as hospice and palliative medicine. Dr. Delgado also developed the abortion pill reversal medication. I’ve interviewed him many times on Catholic Answers Live. Our interview focused on the difference NFP makes in marriage.
Father Paul Check, former executive director of Courage International and now rector of St. John Fisher Seminary in Bridgeport, CT, spoke to me about a little-made connection: that between dissent from HV and the rise of the homosexualist movement. Where else are you going to hear this content?
In this episode you will learn: * A simple way to explain why kids are the fruit and crown of marriage, which is true even if some couples are infertile * How moral philosophy helps explain why contraception is wrong * The difference between contraception and NFP (natural family planning) * A family doctor’s perspective on the emotional and spiritual health benefits of NFP * How the rejection of the Church’s teaching on contraception led to societal acceptance of homosexuality * Why straight couples who contracept have no logical basis to reject “gay” “marriage”
Resources recommended in this episode: * Life Issues, Medical Choices: Questions and Answers for Catholics by Christopher Kazcor and Janet Smith * A Defense of Dignity: Creating Life, Destroying Life, and Protecting the Rights of Conscience by Dr. Christopher Kazcor * Desire of the Everlasting Hills** documentary movie (free to watch)
Question of the week How can I grow in my understanding of the teaching on birth control and better share it with others?

The Grand Jury Report, released on August 14, destroyed any residual belief that the “long Lent of 2002” was somehow “a thing of the past.” It is devastating, and essentially concludes that the Catholic Church is a criminal syndicate that exists to protect the predators who lead it. This on the heels of the Theodore “Uncle Ted” McCarrick scandal, and the Chilean bishop scandal (badly botched by Pope Francis), the collosal problem of homosexual corruption in Nicaragua under Cardinal Maradiaga, and sundry financial malfeasance.
Catholics everywhere are disgusted, demoralized, and prone to feelings of despair.
Enter Dr. Ralph Martin with a prescription of hope. He wrote a perceptive and, I believe, prophetic, Letter to fellow troubled Catholics in the newsletter put out by Renewal Ministries, of which he is the president. What is needed—badly—is a sense of perspective and hope. Not “optimism,” not “moving forward,” and certainly not “lamenting the tragedy.”
It’s not a tragedy. It’s a series of sexual crimes and sins that cry to heaven for vengeance. Where is the Lord Jesus in all this? Ralph Martin, seminary professor, writer, and TV/Radio host, and longtime renewal leader, cuts to the quick.
In this episode you will learn: * How to frame the scandal in its historical context * What the scandal is really about (hint: it’s not “pedophile priests”) * The need to double-down on prayer and fasting for the Church * Why we need to stop “protecting the Church’s image” * Why this crisis resembles the way God punished faithless Israel * The main reason for hope as we survey the wreckage

Ever wonder about the origins of scary movies and disturbing novels? E. Michael Jones, founder and editor of Culture Wars www.culturewars.commagazine and the author of over a dozen books on Catholic faith and culture, locates the horror genre in the chaotic wake of the Enlightenment.
The first horror novel is considered to be Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, Or the Modern Prometheus. Most people are unaware of the severely dysfunctional, occultic, and thoroughly Enlightenment family context in which Mary Shelley was raised and into which she married (her family history and that of her husband Percy Bysshe Shelley’s read like a bad novella).
These people embraced the political and sexual revolution ignited by the Enlightenment and the French Revolution. Bad consequences were the result. Much of this trauma and chaos got internalized by writers and artists and the horror genre was born, beginning with Frankenstein and then extended by Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
In this episode you will learn: * Why the hidden history of horror in film and fiction is tied to revolution, first, the French, then the Russian, and then the Sexual Revolution * How artists who rationalized their own sexual misbehavior told stories that covertly revealed the cost of disobeying the dictates of conscience * The connection between The Creature of the Black Lagoon (1854) and The Shape of Water (2017) * The role that abandonment from the Christian, hence reasonable, view of sexual expression played in the rise of the horror films of the 70s and 80s * The way in which many horror films are actually highly moralistic * How Dracula is a reworked version of Christianity (hint: it’s all about the meaning of blood—shedding vs sucking)

The founding fathers of America never envisioned the secularist UCLU version to which we are conditioned to accept as normative. References to the Bible, to Jesus Christ, and to God the Father abound in presidential speeches and writings at the outset of the United States of America.
So how did we get here? Attorney Charles Limandri has some thought-provoking answers to that question. The founder of the Freedom of Conscience Defense Fund talked about Supreme Court decisions that have deformed the culture, from the 1957 Roth decision that redefined obscenity under the First Amendment right to free speech; to the 1963 demolition of prayer in public schools, to the Griswold v Connecticut decision that legalized the sale and advertising of contraception; on up to the 2018 Obergefel v Hodges case, which imposed gay marriage on the country.
In this episode you will learn: * Why the founders anticipated the societal and institutional health of the country only in the context of a religious and moral people. * How the law allowing contraception led to the 1973 Roe v Wade decision based on a made-up thing called “the right to privacy” as found in the U.S. Constitution. * The true meaning and origin of the phrase “separation of Church and state” and how it’s used as a cudgel against Christian ideals in the public square. * Why “freedom of religion” is a far broader and richer reality that “freedom of worship” * Current threats to free speech in areas such as the wedding industry (and photography, and B&Bs, and bakeries) when it comes to refusing to advocate for the LGTB lobby. * Strong motivations for continuing to support cultural sanity and common sense in the face of increasing persecution.

What is Humanae Vitae, you ask? It’s the 1968 papal Encyclical by Blessed Pope Paul VI (who will be canonized this fall). I can still remember walking into the Daughters of St, Paul Catholic bookstore in Toronto when I was teaching high school there. My glance fell to a book titled, Humanae Vitae: A Generation Later by someone called Janet E. Smith. It had a huge effect on me. I was already on board with the norms of the Encyclical, but this Janet Smith person broadened and deepened my appreciation of the teaching, from multiple angles of consideration.
Well, I ended up meeting her at a couple of conferences through the years, and I’m so happy to present this interview with her. She is courageous, articulate, and knows the teaching inside and out.
In this episode you will learn::
-The context in which Humanae Vitae was released and rejected.
-The level of authority with which the Encyclical is presented by the Church.
-A simple way to understand the why behind the what of the teaching.
-How soon-to-be-Saint Paul VI was vindicated as a prophet.
-How contraception paves the way for abortion.
-The moral difference between natural family planning (NFP) and contraception.
-Why NFP is good for marital longevity, happiness, and stability.

Coffin Nation— The Community of Culture Builders
Canada has many private colleges and universities. It almost had a Christian law school. The number of these will remain zero for the foreseeable future thanks for a stunning 7-2 decision by Canada’s Supreme Court that forbids the establishment of the Trinity Western Law School in Langley, BC.
The reason?
Because Trinity Western is an evangelical institution that holds to the traditional biblical view of sexuality, and because prospective students must sign a Covenant Agreement in which they agree to avoid drunkenness, gossip, plagiarism, any form of hazing or intimidation, with emphasis (I’m quoting now) the Christian “virtues of honesty, civility, truthfulness, generosity and integrity.” Trinity Western make no bones about the fact that its “community life are formed by a firm commitment to the person and work of Jesus Christ as declared in the Bible.”
So far so good. Except that the Agreement also says the following:
- observe modesty, purity and appropriate intimacy in all relationships, reserve sexual expressions of intimacy for marriage, and within marriage take every reasonable step to resolve conflict and avoid divorce
- sexual intimacy that violates the sacredness of marriage between a man and a woman
No explicit reference to homosexuality, but that is exactly what triggered the legal battle, starting with the Law Societies of B.C., Ontario, and Nova Scotia, that went all the way to the Supreme Court.
Bruce Pardy, professor of law at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario (who was introduced to me by Dr. Jordan Peterson) thinks this decision is a cruel joke on all Canadians. In my interview, he explains exactly why. Professor Pardy has a libertarian-style view of the definition of marriage, and the TWU Covenant Agreement is not his cup of tea. But that’s not the point. What happened to good old Canadian diversity? Is there really no room for even one Christian Law School that upholds the traditional biblical view of marriage (which is shared, one notes, by the Catholic Church, many conservative Christian bodies, as well as Orthodox Jewish and Muslim organizations (the non-polygamous ones at any rate)?
If someone is offended by the rules of a private school, he or she should refuse to go. But that’s not enough for the LGBTQS2 (lesbian gay bisexual transgender questioning two spirited) activists who opposed the school’s plans from the get go. Backed by powerful legal interests across Canada and a broadly accepted presupposition about the redefinition of marriage and “evolving Canadian Charter values,” their fight ended last month with this decision.
In this episode you will learn: * How the shift from Charter rights (which are concrete, verbally explicit things) to Charter values (which are ephemeral, fleeting things) softened the ground for the high Court’s reasoning * How the interests of a tiny minority became the tail that currently wags the Canadian dog * Why the Court’s reasoning unwittingly promotes very unjust discrimination the Justices opine they oppose * The eerie similarity between “the vibe of the thing” (a comedy reference that will make sense once you hear the interview) and the “penumbra” of the 1965 Griswold v Connecticut, which paved the way for Roe v Wade via an alleged “right to privacy” in the U.S. Constitution * How this disastrous decision is a wake-up call for those who have been lulled into thinking reasonable accommodations will be made going forward for private educational institutions that go against the grain of PC culture. * Why it may signal the death knell of the much-vaunted pluralism that has characterized Canadian society since the Quebec Act of 1774 * Why it should matter to Muslims, Jews, Sikhs, the Salvation Army, Mormons, or any group that assumes they can freely form communities with their own self-regulating rules
Resources recommended in this episode: * Professor Pardy’s presence, writing, and contact information on the Queen’s University website * Pardy’s essay on the decision in The National Post newspaper. * Australian classic comedy The Castle * The implications of the decision in The National Post by Ray Pennings of the faith-based think tank Cardus.

A few minutes into my conversation with Bishop Gracida, bishop emeritus of Corpus Christi, TX, it becomes obvious that he is direct and to the point, evidently allergic to beating around the bush. Yet, he’s kindly and thoughtful. At 95, he is hale and hearty, and is one of the very few bishops who regularly blog. His remarks, sometimes trenchant, always readable, are found at www.abyssum.org Abyssus Abyssum Invocat, Latin for “deep calls to deep” (from Psalm 42:7).
If you feel somewhat disoriented by some of the utterances and writings of Pope Francis, you’re not alone. If the thought of criticizing the Pope makes you uncomfortable (there are plenty of nasty professional Francis Haters online), that’s a good sign of filial devotion to the Holy Father and to the Church he visibly leads. Sometimes, though, the faithful have “the right and even at times the duty to manifest to the sacred pastors their opinion on matters which pertain to the good of the Church and to make their opinion known to the rest of the Christian faithful” (Canon 212.3).
In this regards, Bishop Gracida has some questions that fearlessly “go there.” What do I mean? The authorized biography of disgraced Godfried Cardinal Daneels of Belgium describes activities between and among cardinal electors, such as Cardinal Carlo Martini, Cardinal Achille Silvestrini, Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O’Connor, and Cardinals Karl Lehmann and Walter Kasper—dubbed the St. Galen Mafia. These activities, verified by Austin Ivereigh in his hagiographic biography of Pope Francis, The Great Reformer: Francis and the Making Of a Radical Pope involve canvassing other electors to elect Jorge Cardinal Bergolio.
Well…
Bishop Rene Gracida believes, as do others, that this activity is canonically illegal under the promulgated laws in the 1996 Apostolic Constitution Universi Dominici Gregis, by St. John Paul II. If this is true, then the validity of the papal election may be in doubt. You read that right.
To state the obvious, I am not a canonist nor was I at the Conclave. What I know is that know that the reaction of most Catholic pundits to the notion that the 2013 election may have been invalid is met with a guffaw or a “that’s crazy talk.” It’s a gorilla in the room whose existence needs to be acknowledged before it can be dismissed as harmless.
In this interview you will learn: * Have a sense of appreciation for what Ordinaries are called to as shepherds of souls * Understand the difference between true episcopal authority as it resides in the individual bishop and the largely administrative authority of a national bishops’ conference * Get a clear picture of a self-described “one crisis after another” life lived to the full * See more reasons to renew your prayers for the life and health of the Church * Understand why the sacraments must never be politicized no matter who does it * Maybe be shaken up

Motion pictures have been called the ultimate form of art because they incorporate all previous forms: dance, music, theater, and mime, all in one. They are powerful drivers of, and reflections of, culture.
Movie lines become iconic and hence memorable:
“We’re going to need a bigger boat.” Jaws “ET phone home.” E.T. the Extraterrestrial “Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.” Gone with the Wind “May the force be with you.” Star Wars “You had me at hello.” Jerry McGuire As Christians, we need to watch movies critically, not just for morality reasons, but for artistic ones. Should believers support poorly made movies because they bear a Christian message? Can Christians see rated R films with potty words, sexual content, and violence? Where’s the line?
This week’s guest has thought deeply about these questions and has some practical guidelines. He is Douglas Beaumont, a convert to the Faith and author of a book that’s due for a reboot, titled The Message Behind the Movie: How To Engage With a Film Without Disengaging With Your Faith. If you like movies, you’ll love this conversation in light of the gospel and the principles of effective storytelling.
In this interview you will learn: * How some G rated films have bad messages and some rated R ones have good ones * The difference between a Christian movie and a movie that is Christian * Some tips for determining whether a story is told effectively on screen * Why some heathen writers write the best “Christian scripts” * Why the golden age movies still hold up * How to notice when a film is selling an anti-Christian bias

This is fascinating. What is the nature of the great experiment called “America”? We say that Poland is a Catholic country, India is a Hindu country, and Turkey is a Muslim country, and so on.
We also say America is a Christian country. But in what sense? Because the majority are followers of Jesus? But Jesus isn’t mentioned in the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, or the Bill of Rights—the Christian religion is nowhere endorsed as the state religion.
My guest this week unpacks the foundational source—the real thinkers and philosophical ingredients that went into the essentially American recipe. His name is Timothy Gordon and his provocative new book is titled Catholic Republic: Why America Will Perish Without Rome. https://amzn.to/2lcTB5M
He finds six crypto-Catholic elements present in the founding of America, and takes pains to show how the founders did not exactly cite the sources (like St. Thomas Aquinas, Aristotle, and St. Augustine) for these elements. Gordon says “America is wired Catholic, labeled Protestant, and currently functions as secular.”
Lots to chew on after this interview with Tim Gordon, to say the least.
In this interview you will learn: * How anti-Catholic bias of 18th century America kept our Protestant and Enlightenment forefathers from admitting their dependence upon Catholic ideals * How the signs of the decline of America (from abortion on demand to the redefinition of marriage to crushing debt to the paganized pop culture) do not signal the inevitable end of the republic * Why America was never intended to be an empire and how international incursions have not been good for the nation’s health * The way in which America can “become more Catholic” without becoming the dreaded bugaboo “theocracy” * How relativism has been deliberately inserted into public life primarily through the Supreme Court * Why truth can never be determined by a poll or nose count, and why it matters
Resources recommended in this episode: * Catholic Republic: Why America Will Perish Without Rome by Timothy Gordon * The U.S. Constitution: A Reader by the Hillsdale College staff * American Cicero: The Life of Charles Carroll by Bradley Birzer * Aristotle For Everybody by Mortimer Adler * Why Liberalism Failed by Patrick Deneen * Dangerous Books website

Greetings, my fellow culture builders: As you probably know, the thing I've been hinting at and quietly building for many months is finally here.

The home of the free because of the brave is filled with many terrific people, who live a life (for the most part—the poor, Jesus said, will always be with us) of comfort and convenience.
America also comes with particular challenges for Christians who are engaged in evangelization. This week, I talked to one of the best in the biz, Peter Herbeck, vice president of Renewal Ministries and its director of mission. He has been speaking about the lordship of Jesus for over 30 years in scores of countries all over the world and he has special insights into the “isms” here at home that make it a challenge for missionaries. I loved this conversation!
In this interview, you will learn: * How the failed sexual revolution has produced not only chaos but also countless hungry hearts for the truth about human sexuality * How different the average American is compared to the average Chinese in terms of openness to Christ * How the prison experience of a Lithuanian bishop provides a powerful lesson for us in the US * Why relativism represents an obstacle to evangelizing, but not an insurmountable one * The importance of praying with people on the spot when they ask you to pray for them * How culture impacts the Christian life and vice versa * Tips on how to stay calm when sharing the gospel with those who might be hostile

Michael J. Knowles the a Yale-bred host of two-thirds of The Daily Wire platform begun by Ben Shapiro. He “wrote” a clever “book” titled Reasons To Vote Democrat: A Comprehensive Guide
Very few commentators anywhere in the mediasphere are out of the closet Catholics who actually accept all the teachings of the Church, which is why Mr. Knowles caught my attention. (Everyone reading this can list a dozen faux Catholics in media.) His show is much more politically geared than mine, but his infectious enthusiasm for slaying liberal arguments and his no-apologies support for President Trump couched in millennial-speak, and his frequent references to his unabashed Catholicism, make him very watchable as a host.
In this interview, you will learn: * How Knowles got the Daily Wire gig, and what his mission is * How he uses his Stella Adler Studio acting skills to communicate * His unsuccessful attempts at baptising Ben Shapiro in the office hallway * How his faith informs his political conservatism * The paradoxical similarities between President Trump and Pope Francis * Why the digital media provides a strong counterweight to the hugely biased MSM * My thoughts on marriage as he prepares to take the matrimonial plunge

Ireland was once known and loved as the land of saints and scholars. Stout in its Catholicism and justly proud of its traditions of literature, of art and of Guinness—along with a veritable factory of holy missionaries to places like Africa—Ireland has taken a slow tumble into chaos.
The Irish have fled the church pews like rats from the Titanic in the last 30 years; Catholic leadership on the old sod has been badly hobbled by scandal and tepid leadership; and, corporately, the Irish media have been crafting an aggressively secularist narrative about the nature of the country and its venerable past.
Very few people understand the “before and after” better than John Waters, my guest this week. He’s an author, playwright, rock journalist, and social critic who has decades of observational experience of his homeland—the recent history of which is less than encouraging, with its historic redefinition of marriage in 2015, and now, with the May 25, 2018 Referendum to repeal the 8th Amendment to the Irish Constitution, which guarantees the rights of all Irish citizens, including “the right to life of the unborn.”
If this Article is repealed, the Ireland of old, marked with the glories I mention above, is over. Done for.
I’m airing this interview to make it available to as many Irish listeners before the Referendum. Pray for Ireland.
In this interview, you will learn: * The recent cultural and historical forces that have gotten Ireland to where she is today * The deep meaning in Gaelic of the English word “unborn” * How Ireland developed its current existential nihilism * Signs of hope that Ireland can come back to her former glory * Strategies for engaging a post-Christian culture with a new way of speaking the truth * How therapeutic deism has replaced the Catholic Faith
Resources mentioned in this episode: * Lapsed Agnostic By John Waters * Beyond Consolation: How We Became Too Clever for God and Our Own Good by John Waters * Persuasive Pro-life: How to Talk About Our Culture’s Toughest Issue by Trent Horn * John Waters in First Things magazine.

Join the Conversation Question of the week:
What is one concrete thing I can do to be an ambassador of hope for someone in my life who may be suffering depression or otherwise feeling despair?
Ours is an age of social disruption, isolation, and atomization. Rates of suicide among young people, rich and poor, along with instances of clinical depression are on the sharp rise since 1999. A dark ennui—call it despair, or melancholia, or depression—has settled into the lives of millions of people.
Sources of community support that used to provide a bullwark against all this “apartness,” such as a vibrant parish at the center of family life and vice versa, mens’ and womens’ social clubs, and a culture that supported the ideals of monogamy, have withered or vanished.
Psychiatrist Dr. Aaron Kheriaty deals with the fall-out of these disruptions every day in his clinical practice and as an associate professor of psychiatry at the University of California Irvine where he is also director of the bioethics program.
This is a fascinating exchange of ideas—from social science data, to poetry, to the life witness of the saints to the truths of Scripture—related to helping those suffering maladies that seem to cruelly evacuate hope from the human heart. Very few doctors see the interconnectedness between the order of nature (and nurture) and the order of grace. Aaron Kheriaty is one of them, and he’s downright evangelical about getting the word out about the urgently needed, good old-fashioned hope. He’s also a fine writer who is attuned to the mystery of suffering in a way that is wise and accessible.
The Hail Holy Queen prayer describes the location of our sojourn as “this vale of tears” for good reasons. If you or someone you know has had serious vicissitudes, trials, or setbacks in his or her life, this is a “don’t miss” interview.
In this interview, you will learn: * Why the worlds of psychiatry and of faith have large areas of overlap and agreement * A workable definition of despair and its antidote * How the lives of some of the (mentally ill) saints can be a sign of great hope and consolation * Why suicide, and examples of triumph over despair, can both be “contagious” * The ways in which the Incarnation of God in Christ provides the direct proof of divine accompaniment and healing regarding mental illness and the loss of hope * The difference between human hope and the supernatural virtue of hope
Resources mentioned in this episode: * The Catholic Guide to Depression by Dr. Aaron Kheriaty, with Monsignor John Cihak * Man’s Search for Meaning by Dr. Viktor Frankl * People of the Lie: *The Hope for Healing Human Evil by Dr. M. Scott Peck * The Hound of Heaven and Other Poems by Francis Thompson, Intro by G.K. Chesterton * Dying of Despair essay in “First Things” by Dr Aaron Kheriaty * University of California Irvine link to Dr. Kheriaty’s bio and contact info*

You may have heard of 40 Days For Life, and you may have heard of its founder and former CEO David Bereit. This interview dives into his story, what inspired him to get directly involved in pro-life activism, and into the reasons why he entered the Catholic Church this past Easter. Bereit is a pro at communicating the pro-life message with reason, balance, and passion.
In this interview, you will learn: * The secret ingredient in your approach that can mean the difference between an abortion and a life saved. * The specific reasons why the timeless teachings of the Catholic Church won Bereit over. * The originating incident that led to the founding of 40 Days For Life. * Why abortion will never be defeated until we tell the truth about what it does to baby and mother. * Why it’s vital that we link arms with people of other faiths, or no faith, to form a non-violent army of people committed to ending abortion and to healing moms and dads whos chose it.

His topics—delivered in his energetic and telegenic style—tend toward what’s currently trending but he always anchors his subject (living together, chastity, celebrity culture, movie and TV examples, etc.) in the timeless teachings of the Church. From what I can see, there is no topic territory that is off limits, including the teaching on homosexuality—the forbidden topic par excellence in today’s climate of political correctness and confusion.
Which brings me to this week’s episode, in which Father Mike and I talk about his new book, Made For Love: Same-Sex Attractions and the Catholic Church https://amzn.to/2J8Ikxj. It’s all about balance, understanding, and having the courage to put the focus where it belongs: on compassion that is yet unafraid to speak the truth.
The issue of homosexuality has been massively co-opted by the secular media and by so-called pro-gay factions with Christianity. The result is widespread confusion: what exactly is the Catholic teaching? Where is it in the Bible? How to respond to family members and friends who “come out”? Is it possible to be biblically faithful and pastorally attuned to peoples’ real needs?
In this interview, you will learn: * Why the Church makes the careful distinction between inclination and behavior, or between unbidden temptation and chosen sin. * How best to respond to a loved one who a loved one who “comes out” to you * How our culture of relativism makes it doubly hard to have a conversation about objective morality, especially when it comes to something this emotion-charged * The way in which Father Mike’s relationship with his same-sex attracted brother provides a model for imitation * Why identifying as “gay” represents a terrible reduction of the dignity of the human person * Why the legal reality of “gay marriage” is best understood as a matter of redefinition and has nothing to do with sexual behavior, per se.

Are atheists uniformly dedicated to truth and evidence, to rational thought and logic? Might there be a hidden causal factor at play in more cases than one would imagine? Psychologist and researcher Dr. Paul Vitz thinks so. It’s fatherlessness.
His latest book, Faith of the Fatherless: The Psychology of Atheism, sets forth the case that abusive, absent, or weak fathers very often provide the psychological soil from which atheist weeds are more likely to fester. Using example after example of leading atheists (start the list with Nietzsche, Hume, Sartre, Russell, Camus, Freud, and the so-called New Atheists Dennett, Dawkins, and Hitchens), Vitz reviews the basic life biography and finds a “father wound” in one degree or another.

He doesn’t reduce atheism to a pop psych theory (not all atheists share the same experience of an abusive father, and, besides, human beings are complex) but he carefully traces the atheists own words and the ways in which their respective intellectual journies led them to reject God—the Father.
It’s a fascinating read. And, as you’ll soon find out, Dr. Vitz is a fascinating guest.
In this interview, you will learn: * Why Sigmund Freud was right in asserting that God is “an exalted father,” but not in the way Freud believed * How the memories of even a long deceased father can influence your faith perspective * Why Jesus called God Father and not Mother * The reasons why Vitz did a control group comparison of philosophers and other writers of the same era and social backgrounds who had warm, close relationships with their father—and how their spiritual outlook differed from the atheist group * Why “public atheists” (those devoted to writing and debating their atheism) is overwhelmingly a male phenomenon * Why, when women leave a relationship with God they usually don’t become atheists, but they form a new relationship: yogi, guru, New Age community, goddess worship, etc.

Dalbey’s books with great profit since the mid-90s. One of the first Christian leaders to address the crisis of masculinity, Dalbey has laid his hand on an urgent and increasingly obvious problem: men don’t know how to be men.
The source of the problem is multiform: the throwaway divorce culture, the failed Sexual Revolution, the epidemic of pornography, bad or non-existent modeling from one’s own father, and a sense of shame that gets covered over by excessive pride.
What is your relationship like with your father? How has it contributed to the man you are, for better or worse? Did your dad teach you how to pray? Talk to you about sex in a healthy way?
Do you struggle to be real—in all that that implies? How has a rules-based approach to religion insinuated itself into your relationship with Christ our Savior?
Gordon Dalbey has your back, and most probably understands your heart.
In this interview, you will learn: * How the enemy likes to foment confusion about manhood and masculine identity. * Why so many men fall for the false substitutes of portfolio size, power, and pornography, and how to find a way out * What the Bible says about the meaning of “male and female He made them” (Gen 5:2) * The ways in which the father, not the mother, instills and imparts male identity in young boys * The source of the war over “gender” and how to recognize the error at the heart of it * A way of renewing your faith in God as Father and Christ as divine Brother

The emotional, some say spiritual, effect music has on us is notoriously difficult to put into words. It’s sort of like analyzing why something is funny. The reality ever exceeds our verbal grasp.
Why are minor chords sad and majors happy? Why, when you hear a song from your childhood is there a superglue of emotion attached, bringing you instantly to those moments long ago?
This week’s guest is one of the greats in the choral music world. If you enjoy music with a lush, cinematic sound created for multiple voices on the exquisite side, Morten Lauridsen is your man.
The most frequently performed American composer of choral music, Lauridsen is a National Medal of Arts recipient (2007), he was composer-in-residence of the Los Angeles Master Chorale (1994–2001), and has been a professor of composition at the University of Southern California Thornton School of Music for more than 50 years. His work has been recorded on over 200 CDs including five with Grammy nominations.
We’re talking serious musical gravitas here.
On November 11, 2018, a massive concert for international television is being held at the Brandenburg Gate in Germany to mark the centenary of the end of World War One. In addition to Welsh composer Karl Jenkins’ Mass for Peace, the other piece selected is Lauridsen’s beautiful Lux Aeterna. I predict not a dry eye on that night.
You can imagine my surprise when, during the interview, the great man spontaneously began playing a portion of his classic O Magnum Mysterium to explain why the notes for the word “Virgo” ground the piece in a special way!
In this interview, you will learn: * Why every artist has to risk failure; as not trying guarantees failure * How Lauridsen became a late bloomer as a composer, at age 50, and maybe how you can, too * Why poetry deserves a massive revival * The importance of stillness and quiet for human serenity and creativity * The mysterious way in which music connects us to the divine
Resources mentioned in this episode: * O Magnum Mysterium performance * Lux Aeterna performance * Profound talk by director Karl Paulnack to music freshmen at Boston College Conservatory * CD album, Morten Lauridsen: Lux Aeterna; Madrigali; Ave Maria; Ubi Caritas * CD album streaming, Lauridsen: Mid-Winter Songs * Connect with Morten: www.mortenlauridsen.net

With only one life to live, if you feel like you have something to create, musically or otherwise, what is stopping you?
Christopher West has devoted his adult life to communicating the beauty of the Catholic Faith, particularly through the insights of what’s known everywhere as the Theology of the Body.
First in archdiocesan religious education, then with the Theology of the Body Institute, and now with The Cor Project, West has been out in front, pointing out the Source of Beauty, making connections between superficially disperate dots, and, of course, being the world’s most famous expositor of the thought of St. John Paul the Great’s Theology of the Body.
His life work of explaining and interpreting the five years’ worth of the great Pope’s General Audiences (1979-1984) has launched a whole cottage industry of books, DVDs, and seminars.
I have interviewed Christopher West more than once, but this conversation with him is my favorite. We talked films that fairly vibrate with low-density gospel ideas, pop music lyrics that point Upward, the sad misalignment that leads to giving into the siren song of porn (he calls it “aiming too low”), and why he thinks the Sexual Revolution is on its last lap.
You’ll find this conversation bracing, and maybe challenging, if I had to guess. West pulls insights whole cloth from unexpected places. I’m grateful for his endorsement of the upcoming revised and expanded edition of my first book, Sex Au Naturel. (More about that exciting development down the road.)
In this interview, you will learn: * The factors that led to the Sexual Revolution and why it is collapsing under its own weight * Examples of pop music, from Bono to Bruce Springsteen, that reflect a deep yearning for the mystery, ultimately, of the divine * How the insights of the Theology of the Body are not merely abstract ideas but concrete ways of personal transformation * The hidden providential timing of the founding of Playboy magazine by Hugh Hefner, and the radical approach to sex promulgated by a young Polish priest around the same time named Father Karol Wojtyla (later John Paul II). * The phenomenon of what West calls “twisted mystics,” otherwise secular artists who tap into universal longings and point in some dim but real way to the reality of the incarnation.

Do I believe I have a human (body and soul) and not just a spiritual, nature?
She didn’t want to do it.
No way, no how.
Not becoming Catholic.
Lizzie was an established and very popular presence in the “young Protestant dispenses advice to the like-minded” space on YouTube; she grew up in the Church of Christ and imbibed the standard myths about Catholicism. She might pray for Catholics, but become one? Riiiiiight.
Attending Pepperdine University in Malibu, CA, Lizzie began to run into fellow Protestants who were either intensely interested in the Faith or had converted to full membership. Meanwhile, her YouTube channel began to really grow wings. (As of this writing, she has 34,808,077 total views.)
Perhaps wanting to be kind and informative, Lizzie ended up shooting some video commentaries with titles like “Seven Lies Protestants Believe About Catholicism,” and “Questions Protestants Have For Catholics.”
Then she discovered the Church fathers, and, in her revelatory video called (wait for it) “Why I Am Becoming Catholic,” she goes one to explain how the book Upon This Rock by Steve Ray was instrumental in her decision. I grinned audibly. My buddy Steve!
My interview with her, as you’ll see, was a delight. She is direct, candid, and very open about her diagnosis with bipolar disorder. Her journey is about to take a profound leap forward when she enters full communion with the Catholic Church at Easter, 2018.
Pray for this young leader. As an evangelist and content creator for Christ, Lizzie Estella Reezay is going places.
In this interview, you will learn: * How her experience of being immersed in misconceptions of Catholicism led to acceptance of countless errors of fact * Why you can’t be too careful which authors you read… * The one book that supercharged Lizzie’s desire to get to the bottom of The Catholic Thing * How her friends and family reacted to the news of her conversion * Tools in how to, and how not to, reach out to our separated brethren
Resources mentioned in this episode: * Upon This Rock: St. Peter and the Primacy of Rome in Scripture and the Early Church by Steve Ray * An Introduction to the Devout Life by St. Francis De Sales * Fundamentals of the Faith: Essays in Christian Apologetics by Peter Kreeft

Is art just a luxury for the wealthy? Can there even be a definition for it? How did the Incarnation of the Logos change the world? What did Dostoyevsky mean by having one of his characters in The Idiot say, “in the future, man will be saved by beauty?”
Jonathan Pageau possesses a unique combination of gifts. He is an extraordinary artist, chiefly in the area of carving and iconography (feast your eyes and soul on his stunning work at www.pageaucarvings.com), and he is an articulate social critic, making important connections between the zeitgeist and trends in the world of art and public images. He is also a convert to Orthodoxy from a Protestant background, and serves as the editor of the Orthodox Arts Journal (www.orthodoxartsjournal.org).

I keep having the same exchange with my seriously Catholic friends whenever Pope Francis comes up in conversation. It goes something like this: we were enthused about the initial days of the election (he was saying things about evangelization that needed saying, he encouraged us to get out of “mindset ruts” and bring the gospel to the peripheries since the periphery dwellers aren’t knocking on the church door) and then….something happened to the enthusiasm.
Troubling things were said during airplane interviews (which have become more frequent), homilies began to sound more and more political, then official documents began to contain ambiguities and it became increasingly hard to domesticate the problem by blaming “the media” for “misquoting the Pope again.”
Enter Philip Lawler. Lawler is known for his incisive, non-nonsense journalism. But Lawler is no muck-raking, axe-grinding ideologue. His work epitomizes the term, “seasoned veteran.” He was the first layman to edit The Pilot, the official newspaper of the Archdiocese of Boston; he’s a Harvard alumnus, and has covered Catholic affairs for 30 years. The year Pope Francis was elected, Lawler co-wrote a warm tribute book to the new Pontiff, A Call to Serve: Pope Francis and the Catholic Future http://amzn.to/2HhAroh
That was five years back.
A number of years ago, he wrote a book about a difficult topic—what happened to the Catholic Church in Boston before and after the 2002 scandals exploded—titled The Faithful Departed: The Collapse of Boston’s Catholic Culture http://amzn.to/2FpXuwm
He has a new book on an even more difficult topic: an extended attempt at contextualizing and understanding the doctrinal confusions have seeped into the way in which the Holy Father leads, teaches, promotes, and demotes. How to discuss them without disrespecting the person and the office of the Sovereign Pontiff? Of course, there are plenty of “rad Trads” who despise Pope Francis and have devoted themselves to attacking him since his election on March 13, 2013. That’s both unfortunate and predictable, since Pope Francis’s three predecessors didn’t pass muster with the (mercifully small) clique of anti-Vatican II activists, either.
Lost Shepherd: How Pope Francis Is Misleading His Flock http://amzn.to/2tpGS6D, despite its provocative title, is a well-researched account of a papacy that, five years after it began, has untold numbers of orthodox Catholics scratching their heads.
In case you’re wondering, no, Lawler is not accusing the Pope of heresy nor does he think the Holy Father is an anti-pope. Like all serious Catholics, he prays daily for the pope and earnestly wants him to succeed as a teacher and spiritual leader. It’s not a book Lawler even wanted to write.
A recent Pew Center poll http://www.pewforum.org/2018/03/06/pope-francis-still-highly-regarded-in-u-s-but-signs-of-disenchantment-emerge/ reflect a troubling drop in favorability among Catholics polled since he was first elected. Not that the barque of Peter is sinking, at least not yet, but the winds have gotten stiffer and the waves bigger. Seems to be more like rudder damage.
In the past few months, there has been a sea change in Catholic media regarding coverage of the Pope’s personnel decisions and the ambiguities within certain documents such as, perhaps the highest-profile example, the Apostolic Exhortation Amoris Laetitia, (“The Joy of Love”) the fruit of a seemingly rigged Synod.
The sense of unease is growing, and despite the lingering fear to even bring it up, mainstream outlets in the Catholic media world, from EWTN to the UK’s Catholic Herald, Catholic World Report, The Catholic Thing, and others have begun to speak up about this with greater boldness. As long as the tone and content is respectful, Catholics have the right and duty under Canon 212.3 to speak honestly about matters of leadership involving the good of the Church.
Interestingly, Catholics almost relish castigating popes of the past (start the list with the Borgia and Medici Popes) as “scoundrels” or worse. This is done to emphasize that the Holy Spirit protects the universal Church in a particular way through the office of the Successor of Peter, who is protected against teaching something contrary to faith and morals.
Today, there is an unhealthy papalolatry in the air that takes the form of taboo against saying even mildly critical things about what a modern pope has said or done, things, of course, that don’t rise to the level of infallibility. A kind of ultramontane loyalty is attached to everything a pope does no matter how troublesome or controversial.
It’s not helpful. Neither is staying silent.
You don’t have to agree with all of Lawler’s interpretations or conclusions to see that there is a massive amount of discord in the Church today and that her visible head on earth is not doing much to “confirm the faith of the brethren” as the invisible Head said to His first Vicar in Luke 22:32.
In this week’s interview—in a spirit of genuine concern for clarity and filial respect for the person and the office of the Pontiff, who is ever in our prayers—we “go there.”
In this episode, you will learn: * How to understand that the human side of the papacy does not invalidate it * A sense of balance and historical proportion when assessing Pope Francis’ leadership style * Why comparing one pope with another is not a helpful exercise * The major “upside” to the current papacy—and the opportunity it provides Catholics * How Jesus is still faithful to His bride, the Church in the midst of every crisis * Many examples of documented statements, pastoral priorities, and political biases that have characterized the management of the Holy See since 2013

Dr. Ryan Anderson rounds out the final episode in our four-part series on transgenderism. I have been an admirer of Dr. Anderson for a few years now, since the appearance of his two previous books on marriage (What Is Marriage? Man and Woman: A Defense and Truth Overruled ).
In this no-holds-barred interview, Dr. Anderson gets specific about the origins of the “trans movement,” the medical and social ills brought about by the gender reassignment surgery, and what ordinary people can do when asked for their opinion. The social pressure to simply agree with the aims of the ideologues is quite strong today.
In this episode, you will learn: * The suicide rate for those who go through with reassignment surgery * What happens to a high percentage of children who are not pressured or encouraged to go through with the surgery (hint: it’s good news) * Why the Obama Administration changed the definition of sex in the 1972 Title IX to “gender identity” and why it changed the debate altogether * The heartbreaking, largely untold, fate of those who change their minds after transitioning * How to counter the almost non-stop barrage of pro-trans propaganda in movies, TV, and network news * The importance of speaking and acting civilly when it comes to speaking with those who support the transgender ideology.

Michelle Cretella, M.D., is president of the American College of Pediatricians, a national organization of pediatricians and other health care professionals dedicated to the health and well-being of children. She is also fed up with the nonstop lies perpetuated by the “trans community” on the world of medical professionals. Big Medicine has become as politicized as Big Oil and Big Tobacco.
As a pediatrician, Dr. Cretella has seen the New Normal up close and personal in the lives of young patients being put into gender transition protocols as early as toddler age. Yes, crazy. I spoke with her about what doctors, especially pediatricians, are facing when it comes to politicized peer pressure to go along with patients’ deep-seated gender confusions.
Very few doctors are willing to step out of the comfort zone and challenge the status quo, even when vulnerable lives are at put at risk. Dr. Cretella and her colleagues at the American College of Pediatricians deserve our support and our prayers.
In this episode, you will learn * The correct number of sexes from a scientific, medical point of view * The facts about suicide rates post-transgender operation * Medical realities involved in the mutilation procedure (start the list with double mastectomy for girls and sterilization for boys) * The reason the American College of Pediatricians was formed * What twin studies show us about gender disorder * The real reason why GID (Gender Identity Disorder) was officially renamed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (No 5) as Gender Identity Dysphoria * A clear way to understand the difference between sex and gender

Hudson lived through a long, dark season of shame and sexual confusion. Early exposure to pornography and often feeling inferior to his older brother, led Byblow along a path toward homosexuality, gender confusion, an ingrained porn habit, and self-loathing.
Years of drifting brought him to a moment of truth, a fundamental choice: to choose love and its demands, or give in to the lawlessness of lust?
In response, God poured out His grace and Byblow was restored to the peace and lasting joy that chastity brings. In this courageously transparent interview, he recalls the sorrow and shame that kept him in invisible chains, but pointing also to the insistent way Christ began to move in his heart and mind.
Today, Hudson Byblow is a sought-after speaker and consultant. His approach to same-sex attraction is fully in line with the teachings of the Church but it emphasizes the dimension of personal testimony and the importance of the lost art of listening.
In this episode, you will learn * Why the language we use when speaking with hurting or angry people with sexual wounds can make the difference between breakthrough and breakdown * How loneliness and self-rejection can fuel porn addiction * The psychological roots of cross-dressing and gender confusion * How a robust Catholic life provides the security and support for those with backgrounds like this * The power of telling your story, of being willing to summarize how God has worked in your life

Walt Heyer lived for seven years “with” a female identity named Laura Jensen, having undergone the full gender reassignment surgery as an adult male in his late 30s.
Full mutilation, hormone treatments, driver’s licence with legal name change. In other words, all in.
It took a few years, but the “Laura” persona cracked under the pressure of the real man beneath the mountain of lies, which induced alcoholism, and a suicide attempt. Walt underwent his second reassignment surgery over 15 years ago and has a profound cautionary tale and hard won wisdom to dispense for those with ears to hear.
In this episode, you will learn * The common myths sold as truths regarding transgenderism * Whether transgender surgery ever works in the long term * The textbook childhood traumas that typically induce gender dysphoria * How a secretive grandmother unwittingly helped destroy Walt’s life by dressing him in a purple chiffon dress at age four. * The way in which divine Providence used Walt’s pain to be a source of hope to others * How he left the dangerous confusions of the trans movement and found lasting peace.

Jordan Peterson has been called “the most influential public intellectual in the Western world right now” by the New York Times, “the world’s most sought after psychologist” by Psychology Today, and “rock star” by most every other pundit—admiringly by fans, sarcastically by critics.
Whatever he is, Jordan Bernd Peterson is crushing it. As of this writing, his YouTube channel has close to 800,000 subscribers; his videoed lectures on the interface between psychology and the biblical narrative are virally shared; his Patreon account snags over $70,000 per month; and his live lectures and debates sell out everywhere.
But what recently supercharged his notoriety (?) was his patient take-down of England’s Channel 4 presenter Cathy Newman during a contentious interview about the so-called gender pay gap. If you missed that slow-motion car wreck, it’s here. As of this writing, it generated over six million views and pushed a worldwide audience in his direction very quickly—and providentially, just in time for the release of his new book, 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos.
In this interview (my fourth with him, the first in person), I get into some of the questions I many of my listeners have had about his worldview. Is he a Christian? Agnostic seeker? Lapsed Catholic academic trying to climb back home? We go there.
Peterson’s Bible exegesis approaches the sacred text from surprising angles, mainly drawn from Jungian insights into archetypes and mythopoetic interpretations of the events and players of salvation history. He is a gifted storyteller with an intense way of getting to the inner truths of the outer stories.
If you’re looking for black and white answers that bear the whiff of complete certainty, try a dogmatic theologian. Peterson is acutely allergic to tossing out glib answers to questions he believes need to be deeply pondered before wading into premature answers. In sense, many of his lectures seem to be orally delivered first drafts of something he might write down later and polish. He clarifies his own thinking as he goes.
For people (especially mothers and fathers) who are concerned about the aggressive neo-Marxist social engineering on college campuses and about the rise of the dictatorship of relativism, Peterson’s courage and perseverance in the face of intense pushback from defenders of the academic status quo is downright inspiring.
12 Rules for Life is not short, and is not for everyone. His eponymous rules embody the kind of tough love messaging that was common in say, pre-1960s America. In a post-modern era of politically correct bromides beloved by feminists and their beta male cheerleader, Peterson offers strong lye, albeit peppered with an offbeat sense of humor. He knows that some medicine now and again needs a spoonful of sugar to go down.
In this episode, you will learn * How his role in the battle for free speech in Canada with the passage of Bill C-16, which criminalized “misgendering” someone, ended up launching his new career as a social critic and surrogate father to millions of millennials. * Why PTSD is as much about the realization of the evils of which one is capable as about life-threatening experiences one has had. * His thought process in analyzing the foundational miracle of Christianity, the Resurrection of Christ. * The ways in which the West is still in something of a hangover from Soviet Communism. * How suffering can be an introduction to experiences of profound meaning and sensitivity to the pain of others. * The enduring influence of his father (and former teacher) Walter Peterson. * Why failing to speak up against evil is far more costly than actually doing so.

Here’s an easy one for you: would you like to meet someone, say, at a business meeting or barbeque and actually remember his or her name for more than a nanosecond? Would you like to remember a list of grocery items even if you don’t have a pen and paper with which to write it down?
Meet Harry Lorayne.
I get a lot of compliments about my memory, and I like to give credit where it’s due. Harry Lorayne’s first book, How To Develop a Super Power Memory (1957) is still, for my money, the best way to learn his system. His later book Ageless Memory: The Memory Expert’s Prescription For a Razor-Sharp Mind (1957) incorporates many additional insights for memory improvement.
Lorayne became nationally known for his many television appearances through the years, having “done” all the television biggies, from Ed Sullivan to Jack Paar, to Johnny Carson (24 times!), to Mike Douglas to Merv Griffin, et al. His showcase piece is to meet hundreds of strangers, one after the other, and then recite everyone’s name later with perfect accuracy.
Hale and hearty at 92, Mr. Lorayne epitomizes line from Psalm 92:14, “They will still yield fruit in old age; they shall be full of sap and very green.” It’s always a thrill to interview a long-time mentor, and I found myself smiling throughout the entire interview with the great man.
The personal obstacles he overcame growing up on the mean streets of the Lower East Side would flatten most people. His childhood family experiences and his early days breaking into the world of magic (and memory) performance are straight out of the Damon Runyon school of hard knocks. He lost his beloved wife Renee three years ago after 70 years of marriage. (Ponder that level of loss the next time you’re feeling sorry for yourself.)
But Harry Lorayne keeps putting one foot up, one foot down, all the way to Londontown, as the saying goes. He has at least one more book in the creative pipeline, and he still does the occasional convention lecture to magicians and others for whom he is a living legend. Not bad for someone who grew up with undiagnosed dyslexia and crippling boyhood shyness.
I have a half dozen of his books, but few more interesting than his autobiography, Before I Forget which his long-time pal Mel Brooks calls “a rememoir.” Talk about funny and insightful anecdotes – couples’ trips around the world with Brooks and his wife the late Anne Bancroft; things going terribly wrong during shows, and his big television break on The Jack Paar Show, thanks to writer Moss Hart, then a very big name. (Mr. Lorayne, a self-described crier, barely manages to hold it together when recalling Hart’s kindness.)
Lorayne speaks the way he writes – quickly, crisply, clearly. His teaching style is at once compressed (he never wastes a word) and conversational (he never sounds “professorial”).
Harry Lorayne is an American original. I know you’ll enjoy this audio only conversation.
Ad multos annos, Mr. Lorayne.

In most social circles today, if you announce that you’re a Buddhist, that’s cool; you’re like a celebrity. If you say you’re into yoga retreats, that’s wonderful. Even if you say you’re a Christian (understood as Protestant) everything is still more or less groovy, unless you’re one of those fundamentalist types that believes Jesus really rose from the dead.
But announce you’re Catholic? Better get ready for the inquisition. Tim Staples knows all about it. Tim was raised Southern Baptist, later became an Assemblies of God youth pastor, and is now the director of apologetics and evangelization at Catholic Answers.
In this interview, Tim goes off-road to talk about life as a Catholic in a post-modern culture. How has the papacy of Pope Francis been a game changer? Some have implied or accused Pope Francis of being a heretic. Tim weighs in with his take.
Last year was the commemoration of the 500th anniversary of the revolt now called the Protestant Reformation. How can Catholics talk about about the breakaway that had led to constant, and predictable, splinterization of so many different denominations, each contradicting the others is various ways?
And what is ecumenism, anyway? What should the endgame be for our prayers “for Christian unity”? Tim Staples has been debating, writing about, and pondering all these questions for 30 years. Listen and learn.
In this episode you will learn: * Specific examples of how to interact with people who disagree * How life as a Catholic is, in a certain sense, different under the unpredictable papacy of Pope Francis * Why ecumenism can’t possibly mean merely being nice and collaborating on projects * How to recover from an awkward start to an interview! * That Jesus Christ founded one Church

As promised, I posed the questions solicited from Facebook about Medjugorje to my guest, historian Donal Foley, author of Medjugorje Revisited: 30 Years of Visions or Religious Fraud? and Marian Apparitions, the Bible, and the Modern World
Please understand that the number of questions exceeded the time limit of the show, but I did my best to compress together the ones that either asked the same basic thing or were already answered in the first episode. Be assured that none were skipped or censored.
In this episode you will learn: * The occultic undertones to the manner and mode of the Medjugorje visions and how closely they resemble condemned apparitions * If the visions are not of God, and yet so many good fruits have resulted in the shorter term, what the longer term endgame might be from Satan’s perspective * Why the fallen or suspended priests who have been closely allied with the seers provide a serious reason to be skeptical * Whether there have been any verified medical healings as a result of the apparitions

On June 24, 1981, a clear Wednesday afternoon, some young people went up Podbrdo Hill near the small hamlet of Medjugorje in then Yugoslavia. When they came down, they told people they saw “the Gospa,” (Croatian for “Our Lady”). A few more joined them, and it happened again.
And again. And again.
Today, three decades later, the six teen-aged seers are middle-aged adults and are still getting these visitations with their alleged secrets and signs. A global movement supporting these visions has been selling the phenomenon as real, in the face of the official stance of the Catholic Church.
What is the official stance? What is the truth about Medjugorje? I spoke with British historian and researcher Donal Foley about the whole story behind the visions, about the assessment by the local bishops (and every official commission that ever investigated the seers’ claims), and about the criteria the Church uses to approve or condemn private apparitions.
There are undoubtedly good fruits associated about some of the more disturbingly bad fruits of Medjugorje. We can start with that: there are good fruits, and that is GREAT. There is much more to the story, including some very bad fruits.
His book Medjugorje Revisited: 30 Years of Visions or Religious Fraud? is a must-read for anyone interested in the most popular unapproved apparition in history. It is the definitive account. (Full disclosure: I wrote the Preface).
There are three groups of people on the Medjugorje spectrum: 1) true believer zealots; 2) sarcastic naysayers; and 3) the much larger group in the middle—people who are either on the fence, ignorant of the details, or who don’t care one way or the other. This two-part series is meant for that much larger middle group.
One American theologian told me privately, “Medjugorje is not only unapprovable; it’s a giant tar baby. Whoever touches it gets sticky tar all over himself.” So why am I doing it anyway? Clickbait? Attention? Not even close. As I’m sure my comment box will reflect, that first group, the fanatics—mercifully small in number—will provide lots of “attention,” all of it hostile and negative. They cannot can’t abide any information getting out there that contradicts almost four decades of propaganda.
The Medjugorje Movement dominates the publishing and internet world, fleeces good people of millions of dollars based on half-truths and outright lies, and people have a right to know a fuller account of the story. In the scores of books and websites that peddle the phenomenon, you will not find references to its serious problems, and so pilgrims are kept largely in the dark. This is a problem.
I have dear friends whom I love and respect who believe the Blessed Virgin Mary continues to appear to the seers. There’s no soft way to say that the Church has never wavered in the official judgment, however, starting with the late Bishop Pavao Zanic, and now Bishop Ratko Peric of the Diocese of Mostar-Duvno (to whom the Church gives the right and duty to judge apparitions). The Latin phrase is non constat de supernaturalitate, meaning, “it is not established that anything supernatural is happening.” It is a negative judgment, and the Church has never wavered in giving it.
Why negative? Medjugorje enthusiasts are quick to claim that it simply means something like, “Wait and see the final approval; in the meantime, go there so you, too, can discover that the Blessed Mother is appearing.” That logic won’t work, for the same reason that if a man asks a woman to marry him and she replies, “Let me get back to you” -- that’s a no. He’s only engaged after she says yes.
The fact that more than one commission has been set up by Church authorities stems not from “doubt about the disbelieving local bishop,” nor did the Vatican “take it out of his hands.” The Movement repeats this mantra frequently. The real reason for additional commissions is disobedience to the judgment itself, as the local Ordinaries have been dealing with fanatical attachment to the visions from the get-go.
Despite the spiritual bullying that some of the zealots employ, it is perfectly fine for Catholics to disbelieve the claims of Medjugorje, as even approved apparitions like Fatima and Lourdes are not binding on the faithful.
As this is being written, the results of the investigative Ruini Commission (chaired by Cardinal Camillo Ruini of Rome and initiated by Pope Benedict XVI in 2009) have been on the desk of Pope Francis for two years. A rumor floated around the internet last year that the Commission is set to approve “the first seven” apparitions—a rumor based on information leaked to a pro-Medjugorje Italian journalist)
In addition to my interview this week with Donal Foley, interested readers need to read this summary regarding that first week in late June, 1981, compiled by Bishop Ratko Peric. The summary is based on the taped interviews with the seers. It’s devastating evidence against the claims of Medjugorje, particularly the first seven apparitions.
Please note that this is not an “anti-Medjugorje” position. It’s a pro-Catholic one. As with most disputes in the Church, this one is about authority. The legitimate authority of the local bishop, His Excellency Ratko Peric, has been rejected, derided, and, in one instance, through a physical attacked. Not exactly a good fruit.
I pray this conversation with Mr. Foley will be of great value to you and I highly recommend his comprehensive book on the matter, and also his Marian Apparitions, the Bible, and the Modern World.
In this episode you will learn * The long history of disobedience by the Franciscans serving in the local Diocese. * The official judgment of the Church, what it means, and why it is so. * The disturbing, occultic elements of the visions of Medjugorje you won’t read about in pro-Medjugorje websites and books. * Why ex-Franciscan friar Tomislav Vlasic, the original self-described spiritual director of the seers, was defrocked in 2009 by Pope Benedict XVI (this is the man of whom “the Gospa” told the seers, “Thank Tomislav very much for he is guiding you very well. Go in the peace of God, my angels!” —February 28, 1982) * Why the Church does not bind the faithful even to approved private apparitions.

Ask Katie Ascough (pronounced azkoe) if she ever dreamed a year ago that she would be elected president of the Student Union of the 32,000 strong University College in Dublin (UCD), only to be impeached eight months later for following the law regarding advertising abortion services. Ouch, to say the least.
The third year medicinal chemistry major won the election hands down and disclosed from the start that she is pro-life, although she was not the “pro-life candidate” as the Irish press labeled her. She just wanted to make some real improvements for UCD students, like healthier cafeteria food, better living conditions, and open discourse among disparate groups.
In this interview, she shared with me what she did that induced so many of her fellow UCD students to impeach her (the first time in UCD history). The reality behind the misleading headlines is maddening and provides both a snapshot of post-Christian Ireland and an example of media manipulation. It turns out that my guest was found guilty of EWPL (existing while pro-life).
In this episode you will learn * Why Katie Ascough represents the best of public pro-life witness: intelligent, honest, and consistent. * What it was like to have her own team of officers turn on her, one by one. * How the Irish media, and contemporary college settings generally, reflect a wall-to-wall animus against Catholics who are willing to serve in public office. * A great example of how to endure pushback and persecution with grace and grit.

This is episode is my first to feature two guests on the same topic, although Episode 34 included Jordan Peterson and Senator Don Plett at the same time in separate cities.
This week’s show topic is the enduring cultural impact of Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life (1947) through the eyes of two women close to its creation.
I say “Frank Capra’s” because that’s how the movie was marketed (it’s now called the vanity credit) and may help explain why the film got only a so-so reception when it was first released. Most of Mr. Capra’s pre-World War II movies were so sweet-hearted that they later earned the not-quite-complimentary moniker “Capra-corn.”
It’s a Wonderful Life is one of the most critically acclaimed films ever made. Nominated for five Academy Awards including Best Picture, recognized by the American Film Institute as one of the 100 best American films ever made, and placed number 11 on its initial 1998 greatest movie list, it also ranked number one on its list of the most inspirational American films of all time.
Think about that, in light of the hundreds of thousands of movies ever made.
By the end of the War, though, the mood of the movie-going public had shifted, as I wrote about the making of the movie in National Review a few years ago here
The next day after it was published, an appreciative email from a woman named Mary Owen arrived in my inbox. Turns out, Mary is the daughter of actress Donna Reed, who played Mary Bailey, the wife of James Stewart’s George Bailey.
I thanked her for the lovely email and we had a few back-and-forths. After my podcast was up on two feet and spreading around the world (11o countries and counting), I thought it would be fun to have her on the show to talk about her mother’s role in this now-international favorite Christmas movie and to learn some back story to her mother’s career and her commitment to writing back to the G.I’s who wrote to her from the trenches and the gun turrets of World War II.
(Oh, by the way, she was not named for the character her mother played in the Capra movie.) The interview segues nicely into the next one, a rich conversation with actress Karolyn Grimes who played Zuzu, one of the four Bailey kids. Remember Zuzu’s petals? This was a real treat for me who loves the movie so well, and I know it will be for you as well.
I learned, among other things, how much Mrs. Grimes suffered as a teen when her mother died and then the next year her father was killed and she became a ward of the state—then “rescued” by an aunt and uncle in Missouri. An unhappy home situation after an abrupt end to her budding acting career (she also played Debbie, the daughter of David Niven and Loretta Young in another Christmas favorite, The Bishop’s Wife).
For those of us who can’t gobble up enough trivia and true stories about It’s a Wonderful Life, Mrs. Grimes is a treasure trove of first hand memories and insights!
In this episode you will learn * How Donna Reed’s work represents the best of the Golden Age of television and movies * Why she made sure she was “just a regular mom” with Mary and her other real-life children * The story of how Reed’s children found a shoebox full of correspondence with American soldiers from the War in her Bel Air home 65 years later * Why Owens thinks the movie that made her mother a household name has such enduring appeal * Who is the oldest living cast member (hint: it’s not one of the child actors) * What it was like to be on set with Frank Capra and to appear with Jimmy Stewart * The ways in which It’s a Wonderful Life touched the lives of the cast and crew forever.

Tony Esolen is both a sage and a survivor of the culture war. He knows there’s a war over which camp gets to determine the default setting narrative, and he knows the cost of warfare. He also knows it’s not a military war (at least not yet) but a war of ideas and moral stances.
Esolen suffered a bumpy and very public exit from Providence College last year, where he taught English and classics since 1990 -- their youngest full tenured professor ever. But the diversity demon took hold and Esolen fought back manfully. In the end, he stepped away from the salary, the tenure, the sabbatical, and the sundry perks and joined the faculty of Thomas More College of Liberal Arts in Merrimack, NH.
Like Ferdinand the Bull at the end of the Munro Leaf story, Esolen is happy. Our interview covered the story behind his departure from Providence not in a literary gossip way but in a What Went Wrong With Catholic Colleges way.
We talk about the new Center for the Restoration of Christian Culture and the importance of getting in the game of reclaiming our cultural heritage.

It’s that time of year again when we review the notable “holiday” movies for their adherence to the real meaning of Christmas, production quality, and merits and demerits. Who better than the founder of Decent Films, Steven Greydanus?
Steve is not only the father of seven and a permanent deacon with the Archdiocese of Newark, he is a prolific movie critic and newly minted member of the elite New York Film Critics’ Circle.
Ever since the first A Christmas Carol silent film came out in 1901 (!), Christmas and movies have gone together like Bob Cracthit and Tiny Tim. Since then, there have been over 30 adaptations of the Dickens original to the big or small screen.
In this episode, here is a sample of the Christmas themed movies Steven and I talk about in this episode:
Elf, starring Will Farrell, produced by my friend Todd Komarnicki, who appeared in Episode 25 of the show
Die Hard starring Bruce Willis. Is it really a Christmas movie? Discuss. And we do!
A Midnight Clear C starring Gary Sinese. Biblical allusion galore in this tragically little known war movie set at Christmas.
Joyeux Noel, a multi-country co-production about the true story of a Christmas Eve impromptu cease-fire between the Germans and the Allies.
It’s a Wonderful Life, starring James Stewart. For my money the greatest film ever made. If you disagree, we can’t be friends. Want the story behind the story? Read this. It’s what got the attention of my upcoming guest Mary Owen, daughter of actress Donna Reed, the incandescent Mary Bailey, wife of George.
Meet John Doe starring Gary Cooper. The other Frank Capra movie about a good man tempted to suicide on Christmas Eve. Bizarrely forgotten classic, as I point out here.
We also talked about the bad ones, like Ron Howard’s super-lousy How the Grinch Stole Christmas and a few other rancid things disguised as movies. Since this is a respectable joint—I ain’t linking to ‘em.
Is the threat of terrorism from the Islamic world a clear and present danger? Is there a way to broach this uncomfortable topic in a balanced and charitable way? Is it Islamophobic to even pose these questions? Author and founder of Jihad Watch, Robert Spencer has been writing and speaking about the foundational documents of Islam, the Qur’an and the Hadith, for over 15 years.
It doesn’t matter that his books, 17 in all so far, carefully distinguish between Muslims who do not follow the literal sense of the Qu’ran and those who do. He still gets repeatedly branded as a hate-monger and, the shame label du jour, “Islamophobe.”
Spencer has finally embraced that label, with key caveats, in the title of his new book, Confessions of An Islamophobe. which is part memoir, and part catalogue of real-world applications of Islamic texts and traditions.
There are few topics that are subject to more confusion and fuzzy thinking than Islam’s relationship to modern liberal democracies, the explicit teachings of its holy books, and the relationship between Christianity and Islam. For his troubles in writing about jihad-inspired attacks throughout the UK, Spencer is still banned in the UK (by then-Home Secretary now Prime Minister Theresa May) and remains a persona non grata in many circles.
One word very rarely used against him is wrong. (I believe he did make one error of fact in our interview, although of the benign variety, in saying that Israel is the only place in the Middle East where Christians are increasing in number.)
There is an Advent tie-in here, straight from Archbishop Fulton Sheen’s 1951 classic The World’s First Love.The chapter, “Mary and the Moslems,” is worth the book price. Prophetic insights into how our Lady of Fatima has a role to play in the conversion of Muslims to Christ.
In his latest book, Spencer meticulously outlines the various groups who are under special threat today by the Sharia-minded ethos, from women and homosexuals, to Jews and Christians.
In this candid interview, you will discover:
- How to respond when people claim that the Catholic Church officially teaches that Islam is a religion of peace
- The rationale the jihadis give for their violence
- How the far Left and militant Islam are strange bedfellows
- How to talk about Islamic-inspired evil while respecting and speaking with ordinary Muslims who also abhor that evil
- Why the West needs a serious, loud, and urgent wake-up call to what’s coming next.
Question of the Week: How much has political correctness undermined our willingness to talk candidly about Islamic terrorism?
“Dr. J” to her tribe, this influencer as a PhD and teaching experience at Yale, and George Brown University. An economist by training, she has invaluable insights into the wreckage we see around us caused by the failed Sexual Revolution. The organization she founded, The Ruth Institute, exists to help survivors of this very public shipwreck.
With the Obergefel v Hodges (2015) decision redefining marriage at the federal level, we have reached a legal tipping point. Most Americans support marriage as it’s been defined for millennia, as the lifelong union of one man and one woman with openness to children. Culture is one thing, laws are another.
If you want practical insights into how to talk about this and other challenges such as our collective no-fault divorce attitude (yes, it has infected “good Catholic” circles), and the forgotten players known as children, this is the interview for you.
You will learn:
- Proven strategies for framing the arguments
- How to avoid taking the bait offered by anti-marriage activists
- The importance of keeping the conversation where it needs to be: on the linking of children to their parents.
- How to articulate reasons for supporting marriage without reference to either homosexual behavior on the one hand, or religious tenets on the other.
Question of the week (for the married): When people look at your marriage, how likely are they to say, “I want a marriage like that”?
(For the unmarried): What is a good question to ask your boyfriend or girlfriend that would either qualify or disqualify them as a good candidate for marriage?

Get your C.S. Lewis on! Lovers of the works of Clive Staples Lewis (+1963), especially The Chronicles of Narnia septet will not want to miss this interview with Lewis scholar and Catholic convert, Dr. Michael Ward of Oxford and Houston Baptist University.
The Narnia series has been one of the most critically analyzed book series in history since it was penned over 60 years ago. My guest in this episode has discovered a interpretative framework to the seven books that eluded the Lewisphere for decades and now has them abuzz.
It’s all about the seven planets of the medieval cosmos. Even if you’ve re-read the books many times, Dr. Ward’s insights will bring you a whole new depth and wonder to C.S. Lewis’s best known work.
And because he is English (I say, the inventors of the language you’re now reading) his prose will expand your vocabulary as well!
I should note one thing. At the end of the interview, I jokingly asked him about his work for Q under Her Majesty the Queen. This is because he had a walk-on part in the James Bond film The World Is Never Enough. (He’s the bespectacled, white lab-coated assistant to Q in this funny scene, handing 007 his X-ray glasses at 1:20: )
In this episode you will learn:
- What subtle, overarching symbolic framework governs the seven-fold story of the Narnia books (hint: think planets, not sacraments)
- That John Williams’s Star Wars theme, shall we say, borrowed promiscuously from Gustav Holst’s “Mars: Bringer of War”
- The meaning of the words etiolated, valitudinarian, and aestival—handy for use at cocktail parties...
- Some important background on what inspired Lewis
- The importance of atmosphere or “tone” in great works of literature and why it resembles the mystery in music.

The last couple of shows have been on the intellectual-nerd side. Here’s another one! Father Thomas J. White, OP, of the Dominican House of Studies in Washington, DC, has distilled the essential of Catholicism into a single volume, The Light of Christ: An Introduction to Catholicism. I devoured the book (insofar as you can devour a work that relies on Thomas Aquinas’s methods and language) in a few days despite being a slow reader. His style is accessible and his prose elegant with a whiff of humor here and there.
All of that comes through in this interview, as Father White gets down to basics of foundations of Catholicism.
After listening, you will know:
- What the gospel really is
- The philosophical and biblical basis for the Catholic Church’s main claim to be founded by Christ
- What Scripture is and why we can trust the New Testament as an historical document
- A simple way to explain the Trinity
Question of the week: How would you finish the sentence, “I”m Catholic because…..” Or, “I’m not Catholic because….”

Arguments for God’s existence are all the rage, as Ed Feser exemplified well in the last two episodes. But what about us? What’s our nature as humans? Do we have a soul? How can we know that the soul is immortal and not just a few pounds of electric meat between our ears that produces cool experiences like a mythical God?
Very few modern thinkers are devoting a lot of time to the question of the soul and whether it’s immortal. Plato thought so, as it most Greek philosophers. Certainly the Bible affirms it. Dr. Michael Augros has written a new book called The Immortal In You. How Human Nature Is More Than Science Can Say. We talked about the finer points in my interview with him. You’ll learn a ton, as I did, about:
In this episode, you’ll learn: * Your own body-soul nature, made by God, destined for heaven, in peril of hell. * How to distinguish between what God reveals about the soul and what reason does * The difference between the body and the soul * How to argue with someone who thinks science is a magical truth-dispensing religion

This episode continues the energetic exchange of last week’s live interview with philosopher Ed Feser. After the show proper, we turned the mikes over to the audience. This week’s special Part II show is the result!
Remember, Dr. Feser is the man that professor emeritus of Oxford, Dr. Richard Dawkins, does not want to debate. You can see why in this lively Q&A session, held at St. John the Baptist in Costa Mesa, CA. Feser is sharp, clear, funny, and engages the issues in a way that resonates with young people especially.
In this episode, you’ll learn: * How to answer basic (and more complex) questions about theism * Effective ways to listen before giving answers even true and accurate answers * Additional sources of information and formation for Christians looking to improve their communication skills with atheists * The importance of patience and humility in the process
Resources mentioned in this episode: * Five Proofs of God’s Existence by Edward Feser * I Burned For Your Peace: Augustine’s Confessions Unpacked by Peter Kreeft. * By Man Shall His Blood Be Shed: A Catholic Defense of Capital Punishment by Ed Feser and Joseph Bessette * Aquinas: A Beginner’s Guide by Ed Feser * The Last Superstition: A Refutation of the New Atheism, by Edward Feser

Join the Conversation Question of the week:
- What is your biggest take away from this episode?
A recent Pew Research Center poll found that the number of atheists has doubled in the United States. Atheism is definitely in the rise.
Is God’s existence a matter of faith only? Is there a way we can come to a certain knowledge of God apart from the Bible or the Church’s teaching?
If you have friends or family who say they stopped believing in God, this is the interview to share with them. Philosopher and writer Dr. Edward Feser is the author of The Last Superstition, Aquinas, and other books of philosophy. This special episode of The Patrick Coffin Show, taped before a live audience at St.John the Baptist church in Costa Mesa, CA.
In this episode, you’ll learn: * The right questions to ask atheists * That there are strong reasons for believing in God apart from divine revelation * Science itself cannot disprove God * How to really listen to the atheist objection and provide a great answer in reply

As a long time reader of GetReligion.org, I know you’ll understand why I know you’ll appreciate this interview with journalist Terry Mattingly, the “GetReligionista in Chief.” Terry is a Russian Orthodox Christian with great sympathy for the worldview of Catholics and other Christians of the small-o orthodox stripe. We can’t seem to get a fair hearing in the media, and Terry is the best commentator on this sorry state of affairs.
Yet, as you’ll learn in this interview, he is neither a doom-and-gloomer nor a paranoid conspiracy theorist. He knows well that some Christians will always do scandalous things worthy of negative press coverage.
In this episode, you’ll learn: * The scandalous ignorance of so many religion reporters. * The apathy of so many MSM editors regarding getting the facts right about religious faith (as compared with, say, the high standards of accuracy in matters of science, sports, or politics) * How to spot biases when it comes to religion reportage (how about the “bad” Christianity of Tim Tebow and the “good” Christianity of Colin Kaepernick?
Rather than succumb to the temptation of throwing a nerf brick at your TV set (or laptop screen), do what I do and learn from Terry Mattingly. Enjoy and share!

- Why do you think religion reporting is so poor in quality?
This interview with counter-terrorism expert and former international FBI Special Agent Tim Clemente provides unique insights into the mass murder perpetrated by Stephen Paddock last Sunday.
Clemente has been a SWAT team sniper, a firearms expert, and was one of the first FBI agents on the scene after American Airlines Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon. He is now a Hollywood writer and producer (The Unit, Criminal Minds, NCIS: Los Angeles).
As a serious Catholic, Clemente’s analysis of the Vegas massacre brings a supernatural perspective to this kind of pure evil. Where other pundits opine about gun laws and conspiracy theories, in this interview you will hear a balanced understanding that doesn’t exclude the reality of faith.
Busy father of nine that he is, the interview was conducted from his pick-up truck during a break in some construction work for his mother-in-law.

The news media invariably give a skewed version of Islam as a world of tolerance and open-minded toward the differently-minded. Derya Little can tell you otherwise from growing up in Turkey in a 99% Muslim milieux.
Her dramatic, at times, harrowing story is told in her spiritual autobiography From Islam to Christ: One Woman’s Path Through the Riddles of God.
As you’ll learn from the interview, Derya discovered that Christianity is essentially a loving relationship with a divine Person as opposed to the Islamic idea of Allah as master and the reality of Islamic government as theocracy.
And what a story: divorced parents; atheist worldview; living la vida loca at university; an abortion; another abortion.
Then an encounter with Christ as an evangelical -- huge. Discovery of sacred Tradition and the sacraments, especially of Confession -- even more huge -- with a denouement of finding lasting love in the Sacrament of Matrimony and the bosom of holy Mother Church.
Derya vulnerably tells her tale of transformation with interesting asides in this very personal interview. Kindly share with friends.
There’s a new high priestly caste in the cultural worship space whose function is to spout a new ideology, replacing what was once called “science.” The new ideology is a form of propaganda and political control, and you deviate from it at your peril.
From the statistics relating to the proportion of homosexuals in society, to the “facts” about global warming (rebranded as “climate change” when the oligarchs saw that too few were buying the old brand), to the realities of abortion, population control, genetically modified food -- for starters!
Austin Ruse has compiled an impressively researched array of counter facts to push back against the purveyors of quasi-scientific fakery in his new book, Fake Science: Exposing the Left's Skewed Statistics, Fuzzy Facts, and Dodgy Data.
If you want a comprehensive summary of the major fiefdoms of fake science and how fake news aids and abets it, this interview is the place to start.

Venerable Pope Pius XII was the pope from 1939 to his death in 1958, straddling an extremely dangerous and unstable time in modern history. He was universally lauded as a hero after World War II for his brave and often risky strategy to counter the reckless Reich machine controlled by Adolph Hitler. Many Jews in particular wrote glowing tributes to this Pope, born Eugenio Pacelli.
But a funny thing happened in 1963. A mediocre communist playwright named Rolf Hochhuth came out with an off-off-off Broadway play called The Deputy in which the Holy Father was portrayed as the Fuhrer’s lackie.
That was the beginning of a PR campaign to smear the late great pope’s person and legacy. Professor of Law at Ole Miss, Ron Rychlak has specialized in telling the truth and countering the bold lies about Pope Pius XII. Rychlak’s work has been praised by an eclectic array of scholars and leaders, including the Jewish Gary Krupp and Rabbi Eric Silver.
If you’ve ever been tongue-tied when you hear solemn nonsense about “Hitler’s Pope,” this is the interview for you. Professor Rychlak has written or edited books that make good use of his legal mind with lots of meticulous research, including the very readable, Hitler, the War, and the Pope
No one has a better grasp of the facts, and your grasp will get stronger after hearing this.

Joseph Sciambra says porn made him gay. At least, it was a major causal factor in his dark journey from shy Catholic kid to appearing in amateur gay porn and doing degrading things in leather bars. Joseph has told his story to anyone, any media outlet, willing to listen. Including Howard Stern, on whose raunchy show Joseph appeared as a guest in 2013.
But Catholic media? Not so much. Perhaps that his backstory is so dark and raw, that the redemption part of the story takes longer to land. Perhaps it’s that Sciambra is committed to focusing laser-like on the astonishing inroads made by LGTB activists in parishes and dioceses across the country.
Few writers provide as much brutally candid insights into the homosexualist movement, the bodily, psychic, and spiritual wounds that attend homosexual acts, and the widespread failure of Catholic leaders to acknowledge the room’s neon elephant.
In this interview, you’ll learn a new way to approach the “gay topic” from someone who is committed to reaching those still in the lifetstyle through his street ministry, “Jesus Loves Gay Men.”
Three questions for you to ponder and comment below,
-Why do you think he’s found it hard to get invited to Catholic conferences when evangelicals are willing to collaborate with his ministry?
-What are you thoughts on how the “LGBT” agenda has been so successful in embedding itself at the diocesan level in places like Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, and Newark, NJ?
-Have you ever thought you faced a seemingly insurmountable obstacle to success — yet somehow found a way?

You would never know it from listening to him lecture or watch him on EWTN, by literary scholar and biographer Joseph Pearce did two stints in the British prison system for his involvement in a violent Aryan-nation style group called the National Front.
The news footage of the recent violent riots at Charlottesville, VA, gave Pearce a serious case of deja vu, and i this remarkable interview, he tells what it’s like to BE one of those activists -- angry (mostly young) men with chaos and anarchy on their minds.
His racism and deep-seated hatred of all non-whites, Jews, and Catholics (“I hated all of the above,” he says) was finally overcome after he discovered the writings of G.K. Chesterton, Thomas Aquinas, and J.R.R. Tolkien. The darkness of his prison cell led into the light of Christ and His commandment to love God and neighbor -- and to forgive one’s enemies.
His unlikely story is filled to the brim with providential interventions, ironies, and a cast of characters you normally only see in movies. To find out the full tale, his spiritual autobiography is Race With the Devil: My Journey From Racial Hatred to Rational Love.
If you want an inside look into the mindset of Antifa and its doppelganger the violent alt-right from a convert to the Faith, this interview is the place to be.

Ever see a bully and want to stand up to him, but couldn’t quite do it? Maybe fear got in the way, or you figured the net result wouldn’t be worth it. Obianuju (“Uju” for short) Ekeocha has mastered the art of standing up to bullies in the form of those who push the culture of death onto her beloved Africa.
In 2012, Uju had had enough of well-meaning First World leaders injecting contraception and abortion requirements into foreign policy to “help the poor Africans” and she wrote an Open Letter to Melinda Gates, wife of Bill.
That Letter went viral and the foundress of Culture of Life Africa (www.cultureoflifeafrica.com) soon found herself debating pro-abortion advocates on the BBC, advising African Members of Parliament, and speaking at conferences around the world. In our interview, she shares insights into best practices for effectively and persuasively arguing on behalf of the culture of life.
Uju is working on a major book by Ignatius Press, titled Target Africa, and is crowdfunding a documentary. Inspiring!

His 15-year-old hands were shaky on the steering wheel of the family van. Not old enough to legally drive, he stepped on the gas and gained speed. He heart raced, too, but more from dread than excitement, his eyes narrowed with dark zeal. He felt part zombie, part ghost, as though watching from outside himself as the nearest object loomed ahead, rushing toward him – an oncoming car. He yanked the wheel sharply into it, at 60 miles an hour.
It was the day Luke Maxwell tried to commit suicide.
From that terrible crash came a remarkable “upward bounce” to recovery and restoration. Luke spoke to me about the traits and feelings that indicate clinical depression, including the MMD (major depressive disorder) with which he was diagnosed in the hospital, almost on the spot.
Today, at 20, he talks to teens, parent groups, and various conferences about saying no to shame and yes to accepting the help you need if you suffer the scalding effects of depression. Do you know someone who might be depressed? Want to find out how to spot the signs? Listen on…

Most people are unaware of the mutual admiration and friendship John Paul the Great had with President Reagan. With differing on Christian teachings, they were acutely aware they had the same Teacher. Both survived close-up attempts at assassination, both immediately forgave their attackers, and both were passionate about bringing down the godless Soviet Communist leviathan that Reagan tagged, “the evil empire.”
Their partnership, based on moral authority and transcendent truth, did bring down the Soviet Union and all its pomps and works. Yes, there were other players in that drama, and one of them is Ven. Fulton Sheen. Another is Our Lady of Fatima.
That’s right. Fatima. As you’ll find out, not only did President Reagan learn about Fatima and its prophetic message about the spread of Russia’s errors from his dear friend the Polish Pope, he (Reagan) identified his life work in some way as being involved in a divine plan, which he nicknamed “DP.”
The fascinating details are found in Kengor’s definitive double biography, A Pope and President: John Paul II, Ronald Reagan, and the Extraordinary Untold Story of the 20the Century.
This is a really interesting conversation with a natural born story teller and historian, Paul Kengor, complete with plenty of sidebar excursions into Things Sheen.

Fog of confusion has settled over the Catholic Church on a number of fundamental teachings in the last 50 years. This is the certainly the case with capital punishment. Countless Catholics have been led to believe that “the death penalty” is morally equivalent to abortion, and many documents from the episcopal level have appeared urging Catholics to vote against laws supporting it.
The late Joseph Cardinal Bernardin of Chicago tried to square the circle with his “seamless garment” approach. While Catholic moral teaching does belong to a whole tradition and thus can’t be segmented into separate silos, the net result of the Bernardin proposal has been further confusion.
Did the Catholic Church change her teaching on capital punishment under Pope Saint John Paul II? What about the informal remarks by Pope Francis? What does the Bible say about it? Are there conditions under which a Catholic can still support capital punishment in good conscience?
Enter Dr. Ed Feser, co-author with Joseph Bessette of a substantial guide to these questions and more. It’s titled By Man Shall His Blood Be Shed: A Catholic Defense of Capital Punishment, and you owe it to yourself to become familiar with what was once unexceptional and ultimately unquestionable.
In this interview, Feser tackles the main objections I threw at him based on the many denunciations of capital punishment I have heard in my life. Finally, a voice of clarity and reason speaking to an issue so prone to emotion and sentimentalism.

The question mark is facetious. More and more men of good will around the world are waking up to what happened on June 2017. That was the day Bill C-16 got Royal assent and became law in Canada. It adds “gender expression” and “gender identity” as a protected ground to the Canadian Human Rights Act and to the Criminal Code provisions dealing with hate propaganda, incitement to genocide, and aggravating factors in sentencing.
Trans-lation? Misgendering someone (say, a “non-binary” or “trans person”) in Canada is now against the law, alongside hate propaganda, and incitement to genocide. Its defenders are playing a game called antics with semantics as to whether it compels speech. We’ll see what the real world punishments are soon enough.
I sat down with the highest profile critic of Bill C-16, University of Toronto psychology professor Jordan Peterson, and Sen. Don Plett of Manitoba, one of the few Canadian Senators who opposed the bill’s passage. Was this bill adequately debated? How does it manifest Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s mandate to institutionalize what is essentially a totalitarian impulse? What’s really going on here?
In this two-guest conversation, Dr. Peterson and Sen. Plett tell us what might constitute the next right step in abolishing and rolling back the effects of the law that imposes an extremist agenda on 9.75% of Canadians. America, you may be next.
Elections matter, almost as much as culture.

British historian, journalist, and broadcaster Tim Stanley sees connections among ideas and movements. Take the modern conservative movement, for instance. He produced a documentary for the BBC titled How Marx Made the Right in which he credits Karl Marx as a major causal factor in the rise of the Right in the 20th century.
In this interview, you’ll gain insight into life as a Catholic convert working in the public maw of secular Great Britain (or the “U.K.” as the more nondescript nomenclature goes) and into the importance of participating in the process of public story telling, which is another way of describing the media’s “news coverage” function: facts + value = story.
Tim earned his PhD in history at Trinity College, Cambridge, and has taught US history at Sussex, London and Oxford. Reticent to be called conservative, he says, “I prefer traditionalist - the Amish seem to know what they're doing.” Either way, he speaks clearly about the need to preserve the foundations of the great thing called western civilization.

It’s the moral law written in your heart. It’s thing you can’t not know. And it underpins civil law and morality. It’s the natural law. Starting with the Greeks, and “baptized” by St. Thomas Aquinas, natural law is the fundamental way that we operate morally. Rooted in God’s eternal law, natural law has to do with what rational beings must do, and avoid doing, to perfect themselves.
This can get pretty nerdy fast. Fortunately, this episode’s guest (a former atheist who became a Catholic in 2009) is gifted at breaking natural law down into bite-sized morsels.

It’s the third rail of both the world and the Church. Anyone who touches it risks social electrocution in the form of the argument-stopping (?) accusation of bigotry and hatred.
It’s homosexuality. Regarding homosexual behavior, the teaching of the Catholic Church, following the Bible, is abundantly clear. Implementing it in a human and pastoral way, however, can be a challenge.
Dan Mattson’s up for it.
Drawn into the gay lifestyle for many years and rescued by the bracing message of chastity, Mattson’s story is living proof of a number of things: that one’s deepest identity is as a son or daughter of God the Father, not as a “gay person;” that no one is exempt from the call to chastity, which frees us from the slavery of impurity; and that the Church is very close to those with same-sex attraction.
Dan, a professional musician, tells his riveting, powerfully honest story in Why I Don’t Call Myself Gay: How I Reclaimed My Sexual Reality and Found Peace and in this interview, he expounds on the important details. Dan Mattson subverts all the stereotypes, with his joie de vivre and earthy sense of humor. I recommend that you share this one with friends, family members, and pastors who are looking for a winsome presentation of an authentic Catholic anthropology regarding homosexuality.

Fake vs. Real News from “the Vatican” with Edward Pentin
The mainstream media love to quote “Vatican sources,” or “the Vatican,” or “the Holy See today said…” What is “the Vatican” and who speaks for it?
I sat down with, to my mind, the best Vaticanista journalist writing today, Edward Pentin, the British-born Rome correspondent for The National Catholic Register, and author of The Rigging of a Vatican Synod: An Investigation into Alleged Manipulation at the Extraordinary Synod on the Family.
We cover a multitude of bases of interest to news junkies, especially the kind who pay attention to things papal. If you’ve ever scratched your head over the latest allegedly official Vatican pronouncement, or tried to understand what Pope Francis just said (or, more frequently, is alleged to have said), don’t miss this interview.

Iranian-born atheist Sohrab Ahmari has had an unlikely path to the Catholic Church, He announced his intentions to convert upon learning that Father Jacques Hamel was murdered on the altar of his quiet Normandy parish church in July 2016, and was received into the Church some months later.
Ahmari is a London-based editorial writer and editor for the Wall Street Journal, and he has a new book that will help you understand how modern art (really post-modern, but you knew that) became corrupted by identity politics and hard Left messaging. The book is titled The New Philistines and if you’re looking for the answer as to why beauty is not (primarily) in the eye of the beholder, this is a conversation worth hearing. Theatre, movies, books, painting, even architecture: art is now mainly driven by PC-driven concerns.
So much of contemporary art is ugly, politicized, and incoherent. And that’s supposed to be its charm!

Marcus speaks with a quiet authority, with the air of a contemplative craftsman. Founder of Marian Caskets, his avocation in life is now his family business.
He makes beautiful wooden caskets.
Moved by the funeral rites of Pope John Paul II in 2005, particularly the plain wooden casket of the late great Holy Father, Marcus took on a life of service to the bereaved and, by his intercession as he works, the deceased themselves. He joined me to talk about the carved messages in these elegant, rough-hewn caskets and about how our culture’s widespread denial (and fear of) of death has kept us far from the presence of God, although He is near.

We live in an age of divorce parties, Hallmark Cards that celebrate divorce, and sit-com plots that revolve around the “hilarious” hi jinx that ensue when the ex comes over. The necessary premise for this age is the notion that kids don’t really suffer because of divorce, not really, right? The kiddos are resilient, right? Mommy and daddy were so unhappy, until that boo boo was fixed, right?
Wrong, says author and married mother of eight, Leila Miller. The 70 courageous men and women in her new book Primal Loss: Now Adult Children of Divorce Speaktell a very different tale. Their experiences – laced with uncomfortable truths about how divorce is almost invariably the “gift” that keeps on taking – are finally brought into the open. Finally, we’re having a conversation about the central characters in the drama that are usually not given a speaking part: the children.
If your parents were divorced or if you’re on the verge yourself, pay attention to this interview.
Dana Gioia is a poet, a librettist, the Judge Widney Professor at the University of Southern California. As the Chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts, Dana was unanimously confirmed twice by the Senate to lead the NEA from 2003 through 2009. He has been given ten honorary degrees and won numerous awards, including the 2010 Laetare Medal from Notre Dame University. In 2015, Gioia was named the Poet Laureate of California by Gov. Jerry Brown.
This is one of those conversations deserving close attention, even if your only exposure to poetry was in high school with e.e. cummings and Alan Ginsberg. Dana is a master at communicating subtlety and mystery, and bears interesting insights galore.
Catholics and other Christians need to get into the game of creative writing, music, poetry, and other sources of beauty for which this sad world is…starving.
Here is a great intro to his work, 99 Poems: New and Selected
You’re welcome!
Todd Komarnicki is a natural raconteur. He knows well how to distill vast amounts of story information into a resonant format that, well, works. This skill has been honed over many years and helps explain why he’s a sought after screenwriter and movie producer (start the list with Elf, Resistance, and Meet Dave).
His latest film is Sully, directed Clint Eastwood, starring Tom Hanks about Capt. Chesley Sullenberger, the “miracle on the Hudson” pilot. Another of his films it the post-production phase is The Madman and the Professor, starring Mel Gibson and Sean Penn, which Todd co-wrote.
In this frank (and fun!) interview, you’ll find out what being an artist who is also Christian in Hollywood can mean, and learn some of the principal elements that go into a great story. Todd has also crafted a script about the making of It’s a Wonderful Life, centered on the long-suffering efforts of Philip Van Doren Stern to get someone to like his Christmas card letter – which a guy called Frank Capra did, to say the very least. You heard it here first, folks. Can’t wait.
Grab some popcorn. Todd’s endlessly interesting, insightful, and has great taste in ties.

I’ve been watching and listening to Andrew Klavan for a few years and always admired his communication chops. He has something to say and he says it well. Two of his novels have been adapted into movies, True Crime, directed by Clint Eastwood, and Don’t Say a Word starring Michael Douglas.
In the interview you’ll find out how and why he came to Christ; the unique challenges faced by Jewish finders of Christian truth; and why commentary on culture is more important today than ever.
Few writers also speak very well. Mr. Klavan is one of those few. Enjoy his autobiography The Great Good Thing: A Secular Jew Comes To Faith In Christ, as I did.
There’s manhood, and then there’s Catholic manhood. How does the Catholic adjective condition the manhood subject? In this free-wheeling interview with the creators of the popular new podcast, The Catholic Man Show, co-hosts Adam Minihan and David Niles explore the seldom navigated waters of the ways in which the one, holy, Catholic, and apostolic Faith brings virtue and courage to men today.
The feminist movement was in some ways a reaction to the fact that me were getting an F in manhood. Unfortunately, the proverbial baby was chucked with the famous bathwater and men today need to hear the differenced between true authority and false authoritarianism -- which is the difference between servant leadership and tyranny.
Adam and David are real mensches, young dads, and they play well off one another. I know you’ll enjoy this exchange of manly ideas and ideals.

Archbishop Charles Chaput of Philadelphia speaks with the same direct, guile-free way he writes. As a pastor of a large American city, he knows his audience: They are largely post-Christian, cynical about “organized religion,” and don’t abide clichés and easy grace.
Archbishop Chaput (pronounced SHAP-you) is also a member of the Prairie Band Potawatomi tribe, the second Native American to be consecrated a bishop in the United States and the first Native American archbishop. You might say he comes from a non-immigrant family.
I spoke with him about his latest book, Strangers in a Stranger Land: Living the Catholic Faith In a Post-Christian World, a sort of follow-up to the thesis he laid out seven years ago in First Things journal essay, “Catholics and the Next America.” That America is here. Ignited Catholics eager to spread the gospel…not so much.
Chaput has been called “alarmist” by the usual suspects in the lamescream media. Christian realist is more accurate. As Christian leaders go, His Excellency is hard-headed and soft-hearted, not the other way around. You’ll find this a conversation worth sharing after you enjoy it yourself.

If you’re like me, you enjoy complaining about bad church music. Whether it’s the stuff the Glory and Praise collections, or the St. Louis Jesuits, or the Marty Haugen/David Haas Monster – most of what passes for hymns of Christian worship at suburban parishes today is dreck: saccharine, sentimental, and syrupy, not to mention mostly unsingable (unless you have vast experience belting out Broadway power ballads).
Well, there is good news, and Father George Rutler announces it in his new book The Stories of Hymns: The History Behind 100 of Christianity’s Greatest Hymns
In this interview, the wry and erudite Father Rutler dives into the stories behind the songs that generations of Christians have loved to sing – yes, including male Christians. As the prophet Joni Mitchell thus spake, “Don’t it always seem to go, that you don’t know what you got till it’s gone.”
If you’re a junky for good “story behind the story” content, you’ll love this conversation about the great hymns of the past, which may yet, please God, see a return to your local parish.

God says he hates divorce (Malachi 2:16). Jesus tells his followers that Moses only permitted divorce because of the hardness of their hearts, and that divorce and remarriage constituted adultery (Matthew 19). Yet our culture has become more and more pro-divorce since no fault divorces laws were first passed (under Gov. Ronald Reagan in 1969). Divorce has lost its stigma.
Dr. Diane Medved has written a comprehensive antidote to the “grass is greener” propaganda with her latest book, Don’t Divorce: Powerful Arguments for Saving and Revitalizing Your Marriage.
Married for 30 years to nationally syndicated radio host Michael Medved (who was a guest on Episode 002 of the show, talking about his new book The American Miracle: Divine Providence in the Rise of the Republic, Dr. Medved doubles down on the message of her 1989 book The Case Against Divorce.
If you’re in a troubled marriage and are tempted to part ways, or you’re looking for data-driven reasons why divorce is a calamity for the whole family (and often for the friends of the divorcing couples), she has amassed an impressive array of evidence from the social sciences and her own practice.
In this interview, the observantly Jewish clinical psychologist makes all the important distinctions and offers actionable responses for couples undergoing trials within their marriages. This is a great one share with them!

Smart phones have given rise to a nation of zombies. You see them everywhere, staring vacantly at their glowing screens in restaurants, amusement park line-ups, in churches, park benches, and family dining room tables.
In his book Glow Kids, Dr. Nicholas Kardaras has laid his finger on a growing problem that few are willing to tackle let alone diagnose and treat. Some people even argue that glowing screens might even be good for kids as a form of interactive educational tool.
This interview will shed light on the causal connection between smart phone use and school shootings, lethargy, and general anger management issues (notice how kids react when their visual drug is taken from them!) Parents, teachers, and pastors, listen up!
Father Sean speaks with a firm, quiet authority about pornography. It’s not just because he’s a priest of the High Priest Jesus Christ, nor that he’s the Theological Advisor to Integrity Restored (www.integrityrestored.com).
It’s also because, starting at a very young age, he got ensnared by the shiny darkness of compulsive porn use. His counsel is therefore personal, experiential. In this revealing interview, he recalls the disturbing but ultimately healing experience of meeting a former porn actor – whom he (Father Sean) recognized as someone who appeared in a porn VHS he had seen countless times. Only Providence could have arranged such an encounter and produce such a strong dose of restoration…
This is a conversation laden with rich scriptural insights into the question of our deepest identity, and the irreplaceable presence of God’s love to bring full and lasting healing from any kind of addiction.

Clay Olsen is a man on a mission. The organization he cofounded and now leads, fightthenewdrug.org, is dedicated to education young people of all ages understand the nature of pornography addiction but also the emotional and social harms occasioned by even “moderate” or “occasional” porn use.
FTND is not faith-based and doesn’t rely on religious principles to engage the phenomenon. It’s all about the science of how porn affects the brain and the quality of relationships. And it is filled with high-quality media content of may different kinds.
In our interview Clay shares many stories about the struggle toward recovery, including a heartbreaking personal anecdote about a nine-year-old girl who found hardcore porn online and ended up watching it nightly for months on end before her parents found out and intervened.
Parents: Get. A. Clue. The pornography industry never sleeps, is always on the prowl, and doesn’t negotiate with its hostages.

It’s safe to call Dr. Bill Struthers a brainiac. He holds a doctorate in from the University of Chicago and his research employ the use of stereotaxic surgery, immunochemistry, and behavioral manipulations to investigate gene expression in the cingulate cortex and basal ganglia. He is also a visiting scholar in science and religion at Oxford University.
His academic credentials, however, have had no effect on his ability to talk to the average layman about how pornography hijacks the male brain. In this interview, Dr. Struthers talks about the findings contained in his book Wired for Intimacy: How Pornography Hijacks the Male Brain.
Because we are embodied beings, viewing pornography changes how the brain works, how we form memories and make attachments. He exposes false assumptions about, and casts a vision for, a redeemed masculinity, while showing the science behind compulsive porn use and how to break free.

Matt Fradd knows at least 129 different ways to talk about why pornography is immoral, bad for relationships, and great training for emotional immaturity. The “Australian by birth, Catholic by choice” author and speaker sat down with me to talk about ways you can discuss the porn problem with those who don’t think it’s a problem – without (this is key) relying on religious or faith-based resources.
Matt is the executive director of Integrity Restored, an apostolate providing all manner of resources for porn addicts and their partners. He can also be found blogging at mattfradd.com. His latest book is The Porn Myth: The Reality Behind the Fantasy of Pornography. There is a way out, and it starts with understanding the problem itself.
Something you should know: 100% of Matt’s royalties are being donated to Children of the Immaculate Heart (www.childrenoftheimmaculatheart.org) a San Diego-based apostolate dedicated to rescuing and restoring victims of sex trafficking.

Vancouver-based PR director Jim Hoggan (pronounced Hogan) thinks strong disagreement can co-exist with civility. In today’s media culture, modes of communication (from emails to memos to blog posts) have become more swords than words.
Have you noticed how many YouTube debates are described as some version of, “Watch our hero eviscerate (or slaughter/kill/slay/own/etc. the other guy”? We can’t seem to disagree without destroying.
This is why Hoggan wrote I’m Right and You’re An Idiot: The Toxic State of Public Discourse and How to Clean it Up.
What’s interesting is that he takes a definite (possibly dogmatic) stand on what used to be called global warming – rebranded as “climate change” – so his communication lessons are tied to a controversial topic from the get-go. But the merits or demerits of Al Gore’s approach to climate change weren’t the topic of the interview – the need for engagement at the level of facts and not facetiousness was. And in this interview, Mr. Hoggan models the civility he recommends.
(Surely his Canadianness gives him an edge in the nice department…)
In this context I can also, without shame, recommend my free e-booklet, Stay Cool When the Argument Heats Up: Proven Strategies for Calm Conversing. Get your free copy by subscribing to my Inside Scoop Newsletter here.
Yes, Virginia, we can disagree without destroying.

Dr. Donald DeMarco is a leading Canadian philosopher, writer, and pro-life lion. He is Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at St. Jerome’s University, Waterloo, Ontario; a Visiting Scholar with Holy Apostles College and Seminary; and is the author of 21 books.
In my podcast interview with him, he unpacked what is to my mind the deepest mystery of all: how God’s provident care, can co-exist with human freedom. God has a plan, and we can say yes or no to it. It’s amazing, really, like the grace at work in this mystery.
I admit to my long-standing admiration of Dr. DeMarco. His books were immensely helpful to me as I was making my way back to the Catholic Church in Canada. DeMarco’s style is lyrical, easy to read, but packed with golden nuggets of truth. You have to love a Christian philosopher whose doctoral dissertation was "The Nature of the Relationship between the Mathematical and the Beautiful in Music.”
Enjoy this rich conversation on a fascinating topic.

The American Miracle: Divine Providence in the Rise of the Republic by Michael Medved
Tony Esolen speaks with the urgency and verbal economy of a prophet. No words are wasted and the point of the conversation is ever before him. The professor of Renaissance English Literature and the Development of Western Civilization
at Providence College in RI, is a translator and a sage of things cultural and authentically Catholic. He’s also a connoisseur of classic movies.
Following a strong series of articles and books on marriage, sexual sanity, and Catholic social teaching, his latest book is titled Out of the Ashes: Rebuilding American Culture.
And what a wallop it packs.
Our interview used the themes and arguments in the book as jumping off points for a discussion that ranged from the long journey from boy-to-manhood to the origins of the culture crisis, to the evergreen problem of Why Johnny Can’t Read. Few writers today combine erudition with humor, insight, and a Christian spirit.
Dr. Sebastian Gorka’s family of origin knows all about oppression and persecution, having fled the Soviets during the 1956 Revolution in Hungary.
Educated in the UK, Sebastian eventually settled in the United States. Through his Congressional testimony, his work as a professor with expertise in irregular warfare, and his new book Defeating Jihad: The Winnable War, he says America (and the west) since 9/11 has become very good at applying direct military force against terrorists and their camps, but has failed so far to confront the ideology behind ISIS and other Islamic radical groups. Drone strikes and special ops raids can be highly effective as far as they go, but they don’t win the hearts and minds of non-radicalized Muslims, not to mention the further radicalization of onlookers.
In January, 2017, Dr. Gorka was named Special Deputy to the President of the United States. Don’t miss this riveting conversation about a topic few want to address, but which becomes more and more important as we go forward.

In this interview, we covered the Academy Award nominees in all the top-tier categories (gauged in terms of general audience interest), from Silence, Hacksaw Ridge, Moonlight, La La Land, Fences, Manchester By the Sea, for starters. We also talk about performances, story premises, and why the last scene can sometime make or break a film’s impact. Listen in!
